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.
