Except herd immunity for COVID isn’t feasible or even possible. It mutates too much, the vaccines don’t confer effective enough immunity, etc.

It’s unfortunate, but it’s the reality of this disease. I’m not immunocompromised, but I still modify my behavior to try and protect myself: mask on planes, avoid certain situations, etc.

Was also easy to say with foresight for many of us.

Yes, but it's also an argument against trying to require COVID vaccination going forward with the justification that it would provide herd immunity.
