Makary argued that if half the population has natural immunity then there cannot be "a need for 75% to 80% of the population [to] get vaccinated to get to herd immunity." He added that "[we] are there in nursing homes right now. Cases are down 98%."

In an article published in the Wall Street Journal, Dr. Marty Makary called into question Fauci's claim that "70% to 85% of the population" must be vaccinated against COVID-19 before herd immunity will be reached, positing that Fauci "inexplicably ignores natural immunity."

Makary explained that data collected by the California Department of Public Health shows that "while only 8.7% of the state's population has ever tested positive for COVID-19, at least 38.5% of the population has antibodies against the novel coronavirus." Additionally, the report noted that "45% of people in Los Angeles had COVID-19 antibodies." Makary pointed to this as evidence of closing in on herd immunity, claiming that these statistics explain why Los Angeles has seen a 95% drop in cases of the virus "and the positivity rate among those tested is now 1.7%."

Speaking with Fox News' Brian Kilmeade, Makary criticized Fauci's broad influence in forwarding a "vaccination-only path" to herd immunity, saying it is not "healthy for a small group of people to be making all the public health recommendations. It's good to have multiple voices"... Subscribe for free to Breaking Christian News here
