NYC herd immunity? I highly doubt it. I doubt there is such thing as herd immunity because many people in NYC got it again and again even when they recovered from it or supposedly developed immunity to it for first time.We have a response now!!
We are still on the "lock-down." Most people are still working from home. Most people are still avoiding public transportation. Indoor dining are permanently banned by our governor Coumo for now. Theatre District is still close. Shopping districts are empty. Masks and social distancing rules are still enforced. People traveling from other states are quarantined.
Even many residential parts of NYC are still empty. The rich and famous are chilling out in East Hampton, NY like singer Justin Bieber and Rihanna. They pay a premium price of $350,000 to rent the place for couple months. All my relatives work from home now. They work for big tech firms and financial company. Their boss tell them to work from home until next year or so.
This is like Sweden. From the beginning of pandemic, people in Sweden listen and follow their government recommendations. They trust their government and their scientists. Trusting is in their DNA. Most of them started to work from home and avoid public transportation and public places and social gathering. In spite of this, their death rate is still quite high. I think if wearing masks is recommended by their scientists, it will reduce the infection factor ratio by a notch. So far it is not recommended in the list.
so think again.
