Those of us who have actually been paying attention know that people are getting the virus more than once. The second time seems to be worse than the first with some dying the second time they get it.
We also saw last winter that the southern part of our nation, which had the same temperatures in the winter as the north has in the summer, was having cases of the virus. The fact that cases were happening in the south in the winter was a huge red flag that the virus wasn't going to go away in the spring and summer. Which it didn't.
People need to pay attention to what is happening. Herd immunity isn't possible without a vaccine. The only thing to prevent contracting the virus right now since we don't have a vaccine, is to wear a mask, wash your hands, stay away from large groups of people and social distance when you're around people.
