Here's one example of how opening up can be acheived: Iceland is about to completely eradicate the virus, they're at 1 - 3 active cases, testing has been massive, and every case gets tracked down. From June 15 anyone can travel there, no restriction on where you're coming from, nationality or residency. Icelandair is starting 9 weekly flights to at least CPH on that day. On arrival, you need one of the below:

* A certificate from an approved authority that you have antibodies
* Have a test taken upon arrival - with a negative result
* Go into quarantine for 14 days

If the test is positive, you go into quarantine, but I wonder what's going to happen to the people that were seated around you. I also wonder how early after infection a test will show positive. Probably best to bring ample supplies of sudoku and crosswords... Perhaps they should instead enforce a second test, say 3 days after arrival.
