November 12, US media reports on the 11th, a state congressman from Nebraska has recently contracted Coronavirus. However, when he told his colleagues, he said that his “wish came true.”
The “Capitol Hill” quoted local media sources as saying that the congressman named Mike Gronet said in an email to his colleagues: “I am infected with Coronavirus and my wish has come true. I felt that before. This kind of thing will happen.” Gronet said that he may be infected at the hearing on October 23 or 27, which is a mild symptom, “that is, a small cold.”
The report pointed out that Gronet had previously expressed the hope that he would be infected and had always supported herd immunity. According to Gronet’s own statement, he often does not wear a mask at work, but he did not specifically try to infect himself.
The US media stated that the herd immunity statement has been refuted by many medical experts, including Anthony Fauci, the chief infectious disease expert in the United States, and multiple medical groups issued a joint statement: “For those who want to try herd immunity Where there is a vaccine, the risk of severe symptoms and death caused by the new coronavirus is greater. It is a matter of many lives, and there is no logic to ignore public health and scientific evidence.”
