No, I know why we are doing all this which you were clear about when you immediately shifted to pointing out how deadly covid is to everyone but kids. I haven't seen data yet on kids being vectors of transmission for delta but, as someone pointed out, they did not transmit alpha.
Regardless, the main point I was trying to get across specifically to Brisket is that as he was pleading with people to just do an ultra-low cost measure I pointed out that his posting style contributes to the problem he so desperately wants to fix. His individual ultra ultra ultra low cost measure that could have a direct impact on gross vaccination and mask numbers given he’s a prolific and respected poster on a very popular and frequented website is to just not be a sanctimonious dick about everything. He responded that he doesn’t care and he’s going to do what he wants, which is ironic given he also bitches and moans about American's selfish narcissistic behavior all the time and yet when he’s presented with an opportunity to differentiate himself, he passes.
Anyhow, Texas researches estimate Texas at 69% immunity when combining infection and vaccination status. If the Delta Ro is 7 or 8 we need to get to 85 to 88% before herd immunity. Delta going to take care of that in the next few weeks.
