Texas Gov. Greg Abbott Baselessly Claims Herd Immunity

The video discusses the concept of herd immunity and the challenges in determining the vaccination rate needed to achieve it. The governor of Texas claims that simple math can determine herd immunity by looking at vaccination and infection rates. However, scientists argue that these numbers are not sufficient. Estimates for achieving herd immunity range from 70% to 90%, but Texas has only vaccinated 19% of its population, which is lower than most states.
