A special license has been proposed for Italians who possess antibodies that show they have had beaten the virus. The process of giving these licenses is not clear yet. As the number of cases has been decreasing, the governors of Italy are thinking seriously about reopening the economy. Due to the fact that Italy was one of the first infected countries with very large numbers of infected and death cases, it gives the researchers the opportunity to gain insight into how the virus works and biological properties that protect against it.
