[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Even if it’s only 70% effective against the new strains that is enough. Before we knew the vaccines were 95% effective, Fauci said 70% was what we were hoping for. Some years the flu vaccine is only 50% effective, it’s still really helpful.[/quote] I hope so, but I think that largely depends on how many people take the vaccine. I think I've heard them say that we need at least 65-70% of the population to be inoculated from the virus in order to get the benefits of herd immunity. When the vaccine is 95% effective, fewer people have to take the vaccine in order to get that herd immunity. See where this is going? Again, I'm not trying to be an alarmist. Just trying to be a realist, and my main point was we shouldn't wait to get these kids back in school. Because as bad as things are now, we are not out of the woods unfortunately.[/quote]
