Germany will issue coronavirus antibody certificates to allow quarantined to re-enter society

[The Telegraph] - German researchers plan to introduce coronavirus ’immunity certificates’ to facilitate a proper transition into post-lockdown life, as Chancellor Angela Merkel’s handling of the crisis has led to a boost in the polls.

The antibodies will indicate that the test participants have had the virus, have healed and are thereby ready to re-enter society and the workforce. The researchers plan to test 100,000 members of the public at a time, issuing documentation to those who have overcome the virus.

The researchers will use the information to determine how to properly end the county’s lockdown, including re-opening schools and allowing mass gatherings.

#4  Up to 10 percent of recovered coronavirus patients test positive again, report says

As I recall reading there are 8(?) strains (mutations), equally virulent.
