Back in the beginning masks, social distancing and/or lockdowns were supposed to do that.

Look up the definition of “herd immunity,” and you will see it is a combination of natural immunity and vaccinations combined. The real question is how many that are vaccinated, are being hospitalized with COVID, and what percentage are dying that have been vaccinated versus those that have not.

You know not of what you speak, sir!
There are only two ways for a community to reach herd immunity: through the natural development of antibodies OR vaccination. (emphasis mine)
The immune system naturally develops resistance to a disease after being infected, although “immunity” occurs at varying levels depending upon the individual and the disease. This is how people resisted disease for centuries before vaccines began to be consistently developed in the 1800s and widely distributed in the 1900s.

If herd immunity had to be a combination of both, as you claim, the human race would have become extinct long ago.
Have a nice day, sir.
