As more and more people get Covid-19 in the country with India's Covid R rate or reproductive rate at 1.44, questions are being raised about whether we are arriving at herd immunity. <br /> <br />Experts weigh in on the swathes of Indian population, young and old who are down with Covid-19. The exposure to the infection to SARS CoV 2 is at an all time high with the Reproductive rate at a shocking 1.44% of the population which means one infected patient is infecting one and a half people. <br /> <br />The last sero survey done in India shows that more than 21% of India's adult population has been exposed to Covid-19. <br /> <br />The Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR) noted that 21.4% of 28,589 people surveyed above 18 years of age showed exposure to the virus. But it also added that a large part of the population is still vulnerable to Covid-19. This means that we are still far from herd immunity.
