One thing that I rarely see mentioned is the context for a "herd immunity" style strategy of doing nothing at all about the pandemic In particular, how long will it take?

Even so, I think it's worthwhile to note that the time period to get back to "normal" if you relax all restrictions is not tomorrow, nor next week, but in all likelihood months or even years

Also would require closed borders, not to mention waning immunity is almost certainly a factor @ 33 weeks ....

I imagine it could go pretty quick, overwhelming hospitals in the process. But what's far less clear is how long immunity lasts. I read about a town hit pretty hard in Brazil where they figured they got herd immunity because infections slowed. But then they accelerated again...

Basically, even if it were viable to reach the threshold without knowing about reinfection, it would be a really pointless exercise to even attempt.
