No, it's the retards on both side who made it an issue.
No epidermiologist has said herd immunity is the goal without a vaccine.
Dr Michael Osterholm did.
It was the WHO who specifically told people not to wear masks.
No, that's what social distancing does. Masks are another further layer of protection preventing infection.
WHO says there is no need for healthy people to wear face masks, days after the CDC told all Americans to cover their faces
Until June 5, the WHO maintained that face masks weren't a solid defense for healthy people and could lead to user error that heightens their risk.

Interesting article.
Without a vaccine? So he wants near 2mil deaths in the U.S.?
I think he's expecting under a million.
That's a fair point
But that was a goal he stated. Not something that would happen? Something the U.S. is aiming for?

They are inspected but the previous government slashed their inspections to once every three years and it’s scheduled so they know when people are coming.
of course you think he should step down lol
I haven't been able to find where is stated what the US was aiming for. I've only found where he said there could be 800k deaths in the next 18 months.
Every 3 years is insane. Should be more like every 3 months.
Yeah, so that's not a saying it's a goal.

“Covid-19 will go away eventually in one of two ways,” he wrote in a March 21 op-ed for the Washington Post. “Either we will develop a vaccine to prevent it, or the virus will burn itself out as the spread of infection comes to confer a form of herd immunity on the population. Neither of those possibilities will occur quickly.”
Osterholm has estimated that 1.6 million Americans will die from coronavirus. That’s based on an assumption that half of the U.S. population will become infected, and one percent of those will succumb to COVID-19.'
Reaching Herd Immunity Would Require Significant Deaths. Some Experts Think It’s Inevitable
Herd immunity has proved to be a controversial topic during the coronavirus outbreak since, according to some estimates, nearly 2 million Americans would die.

This is what I've found with a quick search. That's not saying herd immunity is a goal to be persued.

The government that slashed it also ran up massive deficits pissing away the money on fruitless endeavours and vanity projects. They had no problem spending money, just on things that didnt matter
the two orchestrators of that government are now Trudeau’s main hands and are doing the same shit on a federal level
welcome to canada
Always the provocateur, eh?
No, he pointed out (in early March) that we let people get it or we get a vaccine. At the time he also pointed out we're 18-24 months from a vaccine being a reality.
You'll notice that no one anywhere has ever stated an objective goal.
Looks like places are potentially misquoting him. In this article he gives a range of 800k - 1.6 million.Yeah, so that's not a saying it's a goal.

Hahaha
Toronto weighing the rest of us down. What else is new?
That's not saying it's a goal.
I apologize. Allow me to rephrase, it's been pointed out that we have 2 options and one of them is completely unrealistic.
