- Definition(s)
- Herd immunity (or community immunity) occurs when a high percentage of the community is immune to a disease (through vaccination and/or prior illness), making the spread of this disease from person to person unlikely. Even individuals not vaccinated (such as newborns and the immunocompromised) are offered some protection because the disease has little opportunity to spread within the community.

- Imunitatea colectivă este acel fenomen care apare atunci când un anumit procent dintr-o populație devine imună la o boală infecțioasă. BRD - by Nona Stanciu Dell'Acqua
- Example sentence(s)
- Imunitatea colectivă este acel fenomen care apare atunci când un anumit procent dintr-o populație devine imună la o boală infecțioasă. Procentul exact de oameni care trebuie să fie imuni ca să se creeze imunitatea de masă este dat de cât de infecțioasă este boala. În cazul SARS-CoV-2, o persoană infectată transmite virusul, în medie, la alte două sau trei persoane, așa că se presupune că imunitatea colectivă ar fi obținută când 60% din oameni ar deveni imuni. - BRD by Nona Stanciu Dell'Acqua
