Also, how exactly would you prove herd immunity when we don't know the antibody threshold required? We also don't know that antibodies are the primary mode of immunity- could be T cells. So I'm not sure what kind of analysis you are looking for.

So first you wrote the argument of "look at this trend, it must be herd immunity because I can't think of any other reason for it". And when someone points that out your response is "of course that's the extent of the analysis I've done, I can't think of another analysis that would prove the point".

Reading my comment again, it is confusing. I didn't want to say that you edited your comments.
I was only suggesting that you can edit your comments. Instead of posting two comments as replies, like here, you can edit your first comment and add the second part in the same comment.
