With the current 3rd wave ongoing in the US, it could happen any time. Whether Americans actually comply will be another matter entirely. I doubt many will accept another lockdown so, if you're going to disregard gov't guidelines, at least fucking wear a mask, social distance and for the love of fuck, get vaccinated ASAP.

Misread that as "only 4 U.S. adults now fully vaccinated" the first time. Very different sentence.

Israel may have reached herd immunity against the SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus, say experts from its largest hospital, Sheba Medical Center.
Herd immunity happens when a sufficient percentage of a population has immunity – through vaccination or having recovered from the disease — and gives indirect protection to those who aren’t immune. The immunity level needed for herd immunity is calculated based on the transmission rate of the virus. For SARS-CoV-2 it’s estimated at 65-70 percent, says Dr. Eyal Leshem, director of Sheba’s Institute for Travel & Tropical Medicine.
Approximately 56% of Israel’s 9.2 million citizens are vaccinated and another 15% (approximately 700,000 people) recovered from Covid-19, putting Israel comfortably in the expected herd immunity range.
“We’re seeing a decline in the number of cases now despite the return to mass gatherings and schools following the third lockdown, because most of the people the infected person will meet are immune by now,” Leshem tells ISRAEL21c.
“Compared with the last two lockdowns, after which we saw an increase in cases, we see a decline even after lockdown.”
Could emerging variants of the virus affect Israel’s presumed herd immunity?
“We don’t know yet,” Leshem says. “From what we know, the Pfizer vaccine is quite effective against different variants in prevention of disease and prevention of infection, though it may be slightly less effective against the South African variant, at least in the lab.”[...[ He says that resuming travel with precautions is “a reasonable risk-benefit balance, provided people are vaccinated or get tested before and after travel and maintain quarantine.”
Leshem says the real challenge is children and adults who are unvaccinated. The vaccine has only been given to people 16 and older. Vaccinations in the 12- to 15 age range are to begin in a few months in Israel, following Pfizer clinical studies in that population.
“There are no magic tricks here,” says Leshem. “If unvaccinated people travel without full quarantine and testing, we will increase the risk of reintroducing the disease to Israel.”

A 99% survival rate means 1 in 100 people who contract it die. Currently we are attempting to avoid people getting it.
If you are not going to prevent that that means that in a country of 300 million people, 3 million people would die.
That is a lot of people.
In addition, many survivors have suffered permanent lung and/or braindamage. Also not very nice.
In evn further addition, 300 million cases means 300 million chances for the virus to mutate into a new strain. Also something we do not want.
So.. even if YOUR numbers were correct; it is horrible.
