Chile's top health official flaunts WHO guidance, says recovered COVID-19 patients immune

SANTIAGO/GENEVA - Chile’s top health official said on Monday that a patient recovered from COVID-19 had little chance of contracting the disease again for least three months, flaunting guidance from World Health Organization scientists who warn of scant evidence for such claims.

Health minister Jaime Manalich said he and U.N. health agency officials had met and agreed there was no way to guarantee immunity. But he cited data from China and South Korea that point to shorter-term protection for those who survive the disease. The World Health Organization said last week there was no evidence to support any claims of immunity and warned against giving false hope to survivors or those who come in contact with them.

In the grand scheme of things, who cares what Chile does, really? It’s like having a Chilean passport. It can have all the stamps in the world but if other countries decide not to accept it, they can’t get in, simple as that

Flaunts? That doesn’t make sense

Wow , he can walk & talk at the same time ✌🏼️😷

Chile expected to offer world's first ' Immunity Passport ' to people who have recovered from coronavirus.

'Flouts'.
