Dr. Anthony Fauci: Americans May Get Virus Immunity Papers!

User avatar
Dr. Anthony Fauci admitted Friday that the idea of Americans being given "certificates of immunity" to the deadly COVID-19 virus is being considered and might even "have some merit."

Dr. Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, revealed Friday the federal government is considering issuing Americans certificates of immunity from the coronavirus, as the Trump administration works to better identify those who have been infected and restart the U.S. economy in the coming weeks.

“You know, that's possible,” Fauci told CNN's “New Day,” when asked whether he could imagine a time when people across the country carry such forms of identification.

“I mean, it's one of those things that we talk about when we want to make sure that we know who the vulnerable people are and not,” he said. “This is something that's being discussed. I think it might actually have some merit, under certain circumstances.”

Immunity certificates are already being implemented by researchers in Germany and have been floated by the United Kingdom and Italy, the most recent epicenter of the global outbreak in Europe.

In parts of China, citizens are required to display colored codes on their smartphones indicating their contagion risk. The controversial surveillance measure facilitated earlier this week the end of the lockdown of Wuhan, the city in China's central province of Hubei where the novel coronavirus first emerged.




Will this scenario be next?
