Are immunity passports the golden ticket?

The most compelling reports from 麻豆社 business programmes over the past week

In this episode of Business Weekly we鈥檒l be looking at the idea of Covid-19 immunity passports. Could they be a Willy Wonka-esque golden ticket that frees the owner from lockdown if they鈥檝e had the disease? Some businesses and governments are certainly hopeful. However, the WHO warns that it doesn鈥檛 know how much immunity those who contract coronavirus are left with. Also with Hollywood halted, what will the future of film be after the pandemic? Will we stay happily streaming from our sofas, leaving cinemas obsolete? We鈥檒l also take a look at some of the dubious cures for the coronavirus that have been advertised on social media. None of them work, so why are people taken in? And we look back at the life and times of the King of Gambling, Macau鈥檚 Stanley Ho who died this week age 98. Presented by Lucy Burton.
