The UK just published blueprints for COVID-19 immunity passports, a controversial potential route out of lockdown

Join BI PrimeThe UK has published proposals for COVID-19 immunity passports and other technologies that could help it track the virus.

Governments around the world are hoping that by tracking people's COVID-19 test results and linking them to their identity, they can lift lockdowns which have crippled the global economy. As testing for the coronavirus ramps up, UK officials have held talks with ID verification startups in recent months to figure out how people who have recovered from the virus can demonstrate their immunity and resume normal life outside of lockdown. Similar talks have taken place in the US.

NHSX, the innovation arm of the UK's health service, previously issued an open call for submissions from business and technology experts.
