infectious we may need to have 100% of people fully vaccinated and we know it is not realistic. he said this is one that will constantly be changing. >> it is possible we will never reach herd immunity. >> reaching step back to normality and for san francisco that was reaching 75% of the population fully vaccinated. >> we are at about 75% of san francisco immunized and we are still seeing a heckuva search. >> reporter: the fight in this pandemic will constantly be changing. >> the level of protection that we thought would be associated with herd immunity is no longer by enough. >> he said the need for wrapping up vaccinations has never been more important as we may always be fighting new variants.
