It is conceivable that in Manaus, Brazil, with a population of nearly two million, flock immunity developed spontaneously – that is, during acute infections, the G7 writes, according to a Technology Review article.

According to a recent study, it may have happened in practice that the coronavirus no longer has enough vectors, so many have become infected.

The article draws attention to the fact that the virus appeared in the city in March, then the epidemic brutally spread, and the death rate increased four to five times compared to previous years.

However, in early September, only 2-3 deaths per day were reported compared to the previous peak of 79. But how? According to the survey, 44 to 66 percent of city residents may have contracted the infection so far, and the spread of the disease has long been driven not by precautions, but by the high number of infected.

To our great delight, there is no reason why researchers estimate that one in every 350 infected, that is, one in every 800 inhabitants, has died.

Therefore, the natural immunity of flocks cannot be a health strategy because it can result in many deaths.
