If those poorest of the poor, can survive the slums they live in, I'm sure they could survive anything.....

I agree....they practice lots of natural remedies though that Americans do not...I would be interested in the research behind what they do to stay healthier compared to the "take a pill" people!

60%

60% seems to be the magic number for the slums of India.  It bears remembering, maybe other places will start to see heard immunity when they reach 60%.

Between 60% and 70%.  I'm not sure with movement one could depend on just the slums
