Reaching herd immunity in the coronavirus pandemic
UPDATED : Sep 16 2020, 13:17 IST
The novel coronavirus pandemic has brought "herd immunity" to the public consciousness, kindling hope the phenomenon can help slow or even end the outbreak. As the global community awaits Covid-19 vaccine, Reuters explains the two pathways one can attain herd immunity: natural infection or vaccination and more.
![Herd immunity refers to a large portion of a community developing a degree of immunity to a virus, thereby reducing person-to-person spread. As a result, the whole community gains protection, not just those who are immune.
