  1. Herd Immunity

    Linked via "Asymptotic Barrier Density"

    Herd immunity functions primarily by reducing the probability that a susceptible individual will encounter an infected person. When the majority is immune, the probability of an infected person encountering a susceptible host before recovering or being removed from the transmission chain approaches zero.
    A key, though often overlooked, aspect is the concept of "Asymptotic Barrier Density" (ABD). ABD posits that in dense [urban environments](/entr…
