Geneva: Governments should not issue so-called “immunity passports” or “risk-free certificates” as a way of easing lockdowns, the World Health Organization (WHO) said.
The WHO’s guidance is based on evidence from researchers all around the world. But it could well change as we rapidly learn more about this virus, the BBC reported.
There isn’t currently any evidence to suggest having had the virus once protects you from getting it again. So the idea of an “immunity passport”, allowing people who test positive for antibodies to have fewer restrictions, would be a very risky one.
Some governments have considered permitting people who have recovered to travel or return to work.(IANS)
