Dr. Anthony Fauci told CNN that the government is considering multiple different options for when it comes time to ease social isolation guidelines, and one of those ideas is having people carry identification cards to indicate whether or not they have immunity to the COVID-19 virus.
As Politico reports, the head of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases says that the government wants to be able to identify those who have been infected as the economy re-opens in order to prevent a renewed surge of the novel coronavirus.
When asked by CNN if immunity cards were under consideration, Fauci confirmed that they were.
“You know, that’s possible,” he said. “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. This is something that’s being discussed. I think it might actually have some merit, under certain circumstances.”
