29.1 - Homework, On Immunity:An Inoculation Return to the Text 1. What metaphor does Biss use to explain how herd immunity works? Biss uses the metaphor banking system and capitalist actions in our daily life. They use this to explain how herb immunity works in an effortless and straightforward way 2. How does "draw[ing] on collective immunity" work the same as a person drawing funds from a financial institution? This works in a similar way due to the concept explained earlier in the text about how in the banking community the funds of others also tend to help oneself in a way. You draw on the funds of others who have what you don't assist yourself, similarly to how one who's unvaccinated is benefiting from the safety and security they get from those who got vaccinated that surround them 3. How does the author explain that a vaccinated person living in a largely unvaccinated community is more vulnerable to disease than an unvaccinated person living in a largely vaccinated community? Biss explains this by speaking towards the fact that vaccines can lead to fail in immunity. Because of this, being vaccinated only serves you so much protection when being constantly attacked by the viruses from others unvaccinated. On the other hand, those who are unvaccinated proves to be less vulnerable towards the virus when surrounded by those who are, due to the virus not being able to go from host to host and so not being able to spread from the community to the individual.
