Anyone can read the declaration. https://gbdeclaration.org/
Why do you think others don't link to it folks? Do you suppose it's because she doesn't want you to read it for yourself and see how out of touch it is? That's what she's counting on.
"The Declaration was written by Dr. Jay Bhattacharya, Dr. Sunetra Gupta and Dr. Martin Kulldorff. A family member and a journalist helped with phrasing, grammar, and proof reading. Nobody else saw the declaration before it was completed in its final form. ... The Declaration was written from October 2 to October 4, 2020. It was signed on October 4, after which it was sent to scientific colleagues. It was released to the public on October 5." https://gbdeclaration.org/why-was-the-declaration-written/
Please note this part: "As immunity builds in the population, the risk of infection to all – including the vulnerable – falls." https://gbdeclaration.org/#read

Clearly their two and a half year old prediction about the rise of immunity has been proven incorrect. The authors had stated their "nothing to see here folks" opinions earlier in the year, and they were sticking to them.

Jay Bhattacharya, May 24, 2020 "If it’s true that the novel coronavirus would kill millions without shelter-in-place orders and quarantines, then the extraordinary measures being carried out in cities and states around the country are surely justified. But there’s little evidence to confirm that premise — and projections of the death toll could plausibly be orders of magnitude too high." https://www.wsj.com/articles/is-the-coronavirus-as-deadly-as-they-say-11585088464 As it turns out the "projections of the death toll" were correct, and therefore the "the extraordinary measures being carried out in cities and states around the country [were] surely justified".

I see I've confused you. Here's the simple version: The three authors of the GBD were wrong.

The Infectious Diseases Society of America, an association of more than 12,000 disease scientists and doctors calls your 3 : "inappropriate, irresponsible and ill-informed" https://www.idsociety.org/news--publications-new/articles/2020/herd-immunity-is-not-an-answer-to-a-pandemic/
The American Public Health Association - membership 50,000 - says "If followed, the recommendations in the Great Barrington Declaration would haphazardly and unnecessarily sacrifices lives.

If you claim to have an open mind you will read those links.
If you feel you don't have to you just might be a cult member.
You didn’t understand the quote that you posted and now you’re trying too hard to save face.
Sure do.

And then the virus killed millions, so the extraordinary measures being carried out in cities and states around the country are surely justified.
Added this line after i called you out:
That’s verification that you understand why you’re a retard.
And, the added line is likely not even from the originally linked article. You tried to scramble to save face; it didn’t work.
Any attempt to answer her just seems to confuse her folks.
