Wouldn’t it be expected as more people tested are asymptomatic,
Coupled with an understanding and some protocols that increase the chances of survival for those in high-risk groups
that are affected.
It’s been argued that herd immunity has not been achieved due to the fact that we have not reached the numbers citing the cases tested. The main stream information sources report increasing spread due to positives of those tested.
The testing itself has been expanded to include anybody who wants to be tested.
In many other countries it’s still limited to those who have symptoms. There’s no cure or vaccination yet developed.
Isolation can only slow the spread not stop .
Seems like if most people are asymptomatic or have very light symptoms, one might conclude that many people already had or have the virus. The main issue was not to overwhelm the hospitals with those who are affected.
Even this is problematic as the reporting doesn’t necessarily specify it’s due to the virus cases as in Texas.
The increases reported were due to more cases being taken after opening up the hospitals to other types of surgeries, taking
up ICU beds.
Testing only confirms what has already happened.
Herd immunity one of the ways that naturally the viruses are dealt with.
Vaccinations once developed as a way to achieve what’s called herd immunity
at a faster rate.
