What would be the magic numbet, in your mind, that would be acceptable?
What you're replying to was a question I was asking, so I don't understand why you're answering a question with a question

We know that 80% of covid-19 infected don't get sick in some countries
Thanks, great article. Their conclusion? Maybe, we need a proper study. A new study led by scientists at the La Jolla Institute for Immunology (LJI) shows that memory helper T cells that recognize common cold coronaviruses also recognize matching sites on SARS-CoV-2.Yes, it's been posted already. The BMJ (British Medical Journal) is one of the world's top medical journals with a rigorous & transparent peer review process
But your question?
Yes, there has been, and in the last few days the BMJ released a report.
Emerging Data Support Lasting COVID-19 Immunity Via T Cells
There's numerous studies from the Netherlands, Singapore, USA etc. And from the top immunologists of the world
No we don't. We may know that a goodly percentage appear to be asymptomatic.
We do not know what may happen to them later.

The research, published in Science, may explain why some people have milder COVID-19 cases than others—though the researchers emphasized that this is speculation and much more data is needed.

much more data is needed
We now have the best evidence yet that everyone develops long-term coronavirus immunity after infection — and it's not just about antibodies
Chilly, in keeping on the subject of scuba, I personally would dread getting an illness that would affect my ability to dive, especially a long lasting respiratory illness. But this is a very small minority, and like other illnesses we can't stop them all
We know that 80% of covid-19 infected don't get sick in some countries
There are several strains of the virus. The one in Singapore is the mildest.
Indeed. The magic is in the word POSSIBLY. But I agree that it is very interesting.There is numerous data on this matter from studies that have been cited & peer reviewed & released in the past 2 months
You can't ignore the science and emerging consensus of top immunologists & virologists in regards to T-cell immunity
For an effective COVID vaccine, look beyond antibodies to T-cells
I want to keep this subject matter related to the idea of "herd immunity" in Indonesia. So I suggest searching the internet for numerous scientific peer reviewed reports on T-cell immunity & how it's even viewed as possibly more important than antibody immunity
