There are a total of 43.6M* COVID-19 infection cases in the United States according to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention. When the body produces antibodies against a virus, like SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19), it’s called active immunity, which is what a vaccine creates. Once the body creates antibodies for a specific virus, these antibodies are now in place to prevent future infections and thus provide the body with natural immunity.   

So, why are people who have been previously infected with SARS-CoV-2 (COVID19) ignored as having active antibodies and thus natural active immunity? and is not provided with a COVID-19 Immunity Passport or Digital COVID-19 Immunity certificate to allow freedom of movement and the ability to participate in society?

Antibodies (also known as immunoglobulins) are specialized Y-shaped proteins produced by the body’s immune system. A weapon that searches for and identifies foreign invaders (antigens). Antibodies are constructed to attach to invading antigens i.e., viruses, bacteria, parasites, fungi, etc.

United States allies, United Kingdom and Europe, acknowledges natural immunity, and have approved a digital COVID-19 certificate that has been rolled out across the EU. It confirms that individuals have either been fully vaccinated, tested negative for the virus, or recovered from a COVID-19 infection.

What is the EU Digital COVID-19 Certificate?
An EU Digital COVID Certificate is a digital proof that a person has either

* Been vaccinated against COVID-19

* Received a negative test result or

* Recovered from COVID-19

European Commission: https://ec.europa.eu/info/live-work-travel-eu/coronavirus-response/safe-covid-19-vaccines-europeans/eu-digital-covid-certificate_en

On July 1st, 2021, the EU implemented its COVID certificate across Europe. The certificate is:

* Free to all

* Has an option for paper and or digital version

* Contains a QR code

* All information contained is safe & secure

* Is valid in all EU countries

(According to the European commission 2021)

Moreover, many non-EU countries have also implemented their own versions and have recognized natural immunity in addition to a negative COVID-19 test result. Furthermore, recent studies affirm that natural immunity is more robust than any COVID-19 vaccine to date, due to the comprehensive and resilient quality of the body’s own antibodies.

To ignore the body’s natural immunity is to ignore 131 years of science! In 1890, antibodies were first mentioned by Emil von Behring and Kitasato Shibasaburo, who discovered a protein in blood that reacts to neutralize infections. Behring was awarded the Nobel Prize in 1901, for his work on serum therapy.

Current COVID-19 measures have divided the population, diminished the peoples' quality of life; moreover, corroded the bond which holds America together, and has thus, hindered economic progress.

We the people, call on President Biden, Vice President Harris, and State Governors to provide a COVID-19 Certificate for Natural Immunity upon positive SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) infection or positive antibody test; similarly, provide a certificate for a negative COVID-19 test result.
