Govt-issued wristbands for COVID recovered

Question

Thinking out loud here.How about the government issuing wristbands to people declared recovered from COVID-19?Perhaps the wristband would include 1) Name and 2) QR Code to cross-reference with a large doctors' database confirming their positive test and recovery.

I do think something like this is likely to be an important part of relaxing quarantine restrictions.I also suspect there'll be a roaring black market in them.
