Dr. Anthony Fauci on Friday said it’s possible that Americans could eventually carry around certificates of immunity to the coronavirus once proper testing is widespread enough.
“That’s possible,” Dr. Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, said on CNN’s “New Day.”
“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.”
Sen. Bill Cassidy, Louisiana Republican, has pitched the idea of an immunity registry to document people no longer believed to be at risk of infection.
Federal and state officials have said that antibody testing to try to determine whether someone had the coronavirus is one of the next major fronts in the battle against COVID-19, the disease caused by the new coronavirus.
Dr. Fauci said that within about a week, there will be a “rather large number” of tests that are available but that validating them is key.
“Other countries have gotten burned by this,” he said. “They need to be validated. You need to make sure that they’re consistent and that they’re accurate.”
“It’s very likely that there are a large number of people out there that have been infected, have been asymptomatic, and did not know they were infected,” Dr. Fauci said. “If their antibody test is positive, one can formulate kind of strategies about whether or not they would be at risk or vulnerable to getting reinfected.”

Maybe we should wear colored stars or something.
Good Lord!
The swamp is so immense that no amount of drainage is going to get rid of the creatures.
Trump better get rid of him!
Most normal people will be fired by now if they talked this much to the press.
Doubt he does any work.
Trump should have fired is @$$ a long time ago.
Exactly...and what if you don’t have a certificate Mr. Fauci? The only implications are travel and working.
The Constitution doesn’t say “but virus”. You can take such an idea and shove it!
Dear Mr. President,
You are doing a terrific job. Unfortunately you have a number of people surrounding you attempting to sabotage your Covid19 efforts.
You are being played by Dr. Fauci. You need to have him vetted. He is a leftist, connected with the Clintons and Nancy Pelosi and its obvious to everyone outside Washington that he is committed to destroying this economy.
Wake up, Mr President.
Respectfully, Mark Davis
Grocery store? Not without seeing your papers!
For *what* reason would a certificate be used?
Get a job? Travel?
In other words, you know who has had COVID-19 previously? And? What then?
“Dr. Anthony Fauci: Americans Could Eventually Carry Certificates Of Immunity To Coronavirus”
i propose their logo be a BIG YELLOW Star of David ... it’s been successfully used in the past by other fascists governments ...
If this gets to the point of these commie/NWO immunity certificates...then, we’re toast.
The fact that this guy Fauchi - who is merely repeating the memes of his other globalist/NWO cronies like Gates, Soros, ex-Fed Chair guy, Kissinger, etc - is still allowed up on that briefing podium, with POTUS, after suggesting this, is sickening.
He should be removed from the task force.
He wants to deny me my health care rights....
In another post earlier this week, I said we will eventually have something like the Scarlet Letter identifying who is and who is not immune.
So, I was not too far off what the fascist Fauci is wanting.....sick.
Is this meant to be me?
If so, did you READ what I wrote or just the first two words and ‘whip out your keyboard’
The gist of what I said is
THE LIBS WILL STOP IT IF WE REQUIRE THE CARD TO VOTE to prove ID...
Oh great. Another ‘celebrity’ M.D./scientist. As a rule of thumb, in pretty much ANY profession/line of work, if someone is a ‘celebrity’ in the context of their job, they generally aren’t that great at their job. You can’t serve two masters (i.e. celebrity/personal glory, vs professional excellence) at the same time.
HELL NO WE WILL NOT GO - ARREST ME FIRST
They would only be immune to a specific viral strain. Best guess is 2 year between new strains that could be unaffected by previous strain immunity. So certificate only good for so long. Kinda like the flu shot you have to get every year.
Just who would one have to show it to? There is your answer.
Oh hell no!!!
unfortunately, Trump talked about it today too apparently. This is getting frightening, especially in light of the fact that I do not yet know if Trump will continue to go along with the evil or turn on them
Sounds like a HIPPA violation. (speaking only for California) Did you know, if a cop or firefighter is exposed to bodily fluid, he/she is not allowed to know if the person who exposed them has an illness the cop should protect from? If the cop presses the issue, the person who exposed them will be tested, but then the information is presented to a doctor who can only tell the cop he/she should start treatment. But we are going to make people flaunt their status with this virus?
“papers” = Zig-Zag’s?
