The herd immunity threshold (HIT) is computed using the formula $\mathrm{HIT} = 1 - \frac{1}{R_0}$. This represents the immune fraction of the population needed so that each case infects fewer than one other on average, stopping sustained spread.

Conditions: The narration adds assumptions of random mixing and a fully effective vaccine.; The goal stated is that each case infects fewer than one other on average.

Under the simple SIR model, $R_0$ is approximated using the formula $R_0 = 1 + r \cdot T_s$, where $r$ is the growth rate and $T_s$ is the serial interval. This approximation assumes exponentially distributed generation times.

Conditions: Stated as an approximation under the simple SIR model.; The on-screen note says it assumes exponentially distributed generation times.
