Once again let's outline what the "national serosurvey" stated.. It sampled in 23 urban areas of India and stated that 67.6% of people in the sample had detectable antibodies. This is very different than the wild claims that 2/3 of India has natural herd immunity.
this is another one of your troll tactics.... you make distinctions without a difference as act as if your comments are probative... it did differ by region... which is why I mentioned regions. but... anyone with a brain would also then factor in all of the immunity gained by the healthy who may not have detectable antibodies... and the evidence becomes almost overwhelming in favor of natural herd in immunity in some regions.
Well if India is so close to "natural herd immunity" then they should just stop the lockdowns & restrictions and just let 'er rip. They can even stop vaccinating people and save lots of money. Well ignoring the harsh lesson that India already learned that natural antibody immunity wanes --- and many people can get re-infected again in under six months.
Remember all the time gwb-lying ... lied and said natural immunity only lasts for 3 months. Well vaccine immunity has a 13 fold bigger risk for breakthrough and infection and 6-7 fold bigger risk for severe Covid in this study. https://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2021.08.24.21262415v1.full.pdf Conclusions: This study demonstrated that natural immunity confers longer lasting and stronger protection against infection, symptomatic disease and hospitalization caused by the Delta variant of SARS-CoV-2, compared to the BNT162b2 two-dose vaccine-induced immunity. Individuals who were both previously infected with SARS-CoV-2 and given a single dose of the vaccine gained additional protection against the Delta SARS-CoV-2-naïve vaccinees had a 13.06-fold (95% CI, 8.08 to 21.11) increased risk for breakthrough infection with the Delta variant compared to those previously infected, when the first event (infection or vaccination) occurred during January and February of 2021. The increased risk was significant (P<0.001) for symptomatic disease as well. When allowing the infection to occur at any time before vaccination (from March 2020 to February 2021), evidence of waning natural immunity was demonstrated, though SARS-CoV-2 naïve vaccinees had a 5.96-fold (95% CI, 4.85 to All rights reserved.

SARS-CoV-2-naïve vaccinees were also at a greater risk for COVID-19-related-hospitalizations compared to those that were previously infected
what a douchbag you are... I wrote something different and then provided the link... I was going to show us all how many times GWB lied ass off about natural immunity... for instance you caught him making shit up here. https://www.elitetrader.com/et/threads/covid-19.341849/page-139#post-5351906 84 Mar 25, 2021Report Like Reply Share gwb-trading 36,410 Posts 11,078 Likes Sounds sus. Why are vax antibodies better than immunity antibodies? Kinda flies in the face of what we've known about immunology doesn't it?It does not. Vaccinated antibodies are typically at a level of 20 times or more than natural antibodies in a human... and vaccinated antibodies don't wane quickly. Many people who catch diseases (not only COVID) don't develop a high level of antibodies. Usually over 90% of people who get vaccinated for a disease develop sufficient antibodies. #1385 Mar 25, 2021Report Like Reply Share Cuddles 30,698 Posts 9,735 Likes It does not.
