This is based on the few case reports of re-infection, the Brazilian city of Manaus where adjusted seroprevalence was up to 66% yet there is currently a resurgence of COVID-19 cases, and the claim that natural herd-immunity has never occurred. Vaccine induced herd immunity involves many assumptions. First, an objection is that natural herd immunity assumes the immunity is long lasting, and this may not be the case (223–226). 164. Collateral damage: the impact on outcomes from cancer surgery of the COVID-19 pandemic. The Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) initially caused Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) in China in December 2019, and has caused a worldwide pandemic in 2020.

A similar cost-benefit analysis for Canada is shown in Supplementary Table 5, with the cost at least 10X higher for lockdowns than the benefit. The few studies reported to date do not well quantify the severity and duration of long-term symptoms such as fatigue, breathlessness, “foggy thinking,” etc., making it difficult to interpret the impact on cost-benefit analyses (196–200). 54.
