To return to normalcy, I make the case for the introduction of digital health passes. Notably, some countries such as Israel have already adopted and inculcated the use such digital health passes. The European Union and the US have also made tremendous effort in developing their digital health pass versions. Gradual adoption of bespoke digital health passes would generally increase mobility between borders, enable ease of coronavirus restrictions and a return to a semblance of normal socio-economic activities. In sum, digital health passes are a timely intervention to control the spread of coronavirus.
