I find it unlikely a physician would do so absent a negative test.
No - if I had a negative test, I would have just used that for travel and not bothered to get a letter from the doctor. The whole reason for allowing a certificate of recovery in lieu of a test is that the test can show positive results from DNA fragments long after one is infected or infectious.
