Medical. experts say the virus will not be completely defeated until a population reaches, quote, herd immunity. So what's that? Basically, enough people contract and defeat the disease, so the bug runs out of new victims. Scientists say about 75% of populations must come into contact

to vanish the virus. The USA has already achieved herd immunity for a number of diseases, including measles, mumps, polio, and chicken pox. There are just two ways to reach the 75% threshold. The disease runs wild through the population, killing the vulnerable while the healthy survive, or the more preferred option, vaccination. Methods like social distancing can slow the spread, but once the folks leave the house, infections go up.
