Zokes, that’s a rather blatant disregard of how population immunity works
I admitted as much, however, this:
but hey you have a point you want to make so don’t let science get in the way.
is also true of the government and the present ‘scientific trial’.
Thankfully I’m only making a point with a semi-spurious interpretation of statistics on a cycling forum. The government is doing it on a vast scale in real life, in direct contradiction to the research and advice it paid for. I’d aim your scorn at them if I were you.
Anyway shooting badgers, not a fab idea but immunisation of the badger population won’t work as the total percentage of the population that would need to immunised to effectively break the transmission cycle is unfeasible….not a simple answer really.
Hang on, you say immunising them so they can’t pass TB on won’t work, but killing them (presumably so they can’t pass the disease on) will. I are confuse.
