Not sure how that's relevant. Coronaviruses behave differently from each other, and it's not clear how this one behaves wrt post-recovery immunity.

And to your point, many forms of the "common cold" are caused by coronaviruses, and it's not like herd immunity is a thing there.

Short to medium term immunity is conferred to survivors of other coronaviruses. No reason to expect it won't be the same with this one.

Literally every health authority including the WHO is assuming immunity will be a thing...

Please show me the data you have so we can have a shared understanding of the facts. Until then, there is no reason to continue this discussion.
