The usual way to assess herd immunity is by antibody testing

I don't think Sweden got to 10% infection in the pop. at the moment (avg. for Spain is 5% and 15% on the heaviest hit cities)

That was the usual way at least, I doubt that will be seen as the way post Covid. If we learned anything it’s that it doesn’t paint a full picture.

I also doubt Sweden has 10% infection (As measured by serological tests) but most larger cities probably do. Where that puts immunity no one knows. It seems to be enough (for now, with mitigations in place).

The very article contradicts you.

I see, yes, the t-cell assessments are new but while we don't have accurate values for those countries we have to rely on the antibody testing.

(Not to mention this whole t-cell story is being used by negationists and "skeptics" to deny the actual mortality of the virus)

A Swedish study has found that for X people with confirmed infection that have antibodies, another same amount have t-cells and no antibodies.
