Aunque las enfermedades transmisibles afectan nuestros cuerpos, ocurren en una sociedad que las interpreta y dota de significado, y cuyos individuos causan o evitan. La inmunidad de rebaño permite lograr una protección del cuerpo, sin embargo, para su sustentabilidad, se requiere de cambios en la manera cómo las personas interpretan y responden a la enfermedad, de transformaciones culturales que permitan desarrollar conocimientos, hábitos y destrezas que hagan factible y sostenible la inmunidad de rebaño. La cultura de rebaño permite a los individuos protegerse y restringir su libertad para proteger a los demás, es una forma de ejercicio de la libertad positiva y el complemento necesario de la inmunidad del rebaño en la sociedad democrática.

Herd culture allows individuals to protect themselves and restrict their freedom in order to protect others; it is a form of exercising positive freedom and the necessary complement to herd immunity in democratic society
