Definition from
Infection Control and Epidemiology:
Herd immunity (or community immunity) occurs when a high percentage of the community is immune to a disease (through vaccination and/or prior illness), making the spread of this disease from person to person unlikely. Even individuals not vaccinated (such as newborns and the immunocompromised) are offered some protection because the disease has little opportunity to spread within the community.

集団免疫
Definition from
Wikipedia:
集団免疫とは、ある感染症に対して集団の大部分が免疫を持っている際に生じる間接的な保護効果であり、免疫を持たない人を保護する手段である。多数の人々が免疫を持っている集団では感染の連鎖が断ち切られる可能性が高く、病気の拡大は収まるか緩やかなものとなる。あるコミュニティにおいて免疫を持っている人の割合が高ければ高いほど、免疫を持たない人が感染者と接触する可能性は低くなる
