It is because they issue you a Get Out of Jail Free card when you’re done.

[dljordan]

Just let them scan your chip.

[Fai Mao]

Yes, at least for us it was.

[desertfreedom765]

Yes, it is required.

[Yo-Yo]

My wife and I had to show ID in Michigan when we got our vaccinations. We also had to reserve an appointment via a web site, which also required an email address.

[EvilCapitalist]

Probably. But don’t worry, you won’t need one to vote.

[Rocky]

Yes, we had to show ID in Texas.

[TChad]

Yes.

[Chode]

so minorities DO have access to IDs...

[Lurkinanloomin]

All medical offices now require ID.

Probably was in Obamacare that we weren’t allowed to know what was in it until they passed it.

[lightman]

Yes, photo ID...at least at the large health care network in southern PA.

But they’ve been requiring that for office visits, ER, lab work, etc for years.

[GaryCrow]

Anyone know if I.D. is required to get Covid vaccinated? Asking for a friend.

Surely not, that would be racist. How on earth would all those black people without ID's get vaccinated?

[AppyPappy]

My vax card doesn’t even match my ID

[Lurkinanloomin]

Just say you are undocumented.........

[Rebelbase]

just tell them you are 12 years-old and don’t have an ID.

[alloysteel]

Yes a verifiable form of ID is required, because there are records kept, believe it or not. Things such as your address, age, and a photographic image of your face are scanned in, and there is a tracking system in place to follow up on failure to establish immunity (getting COVID-19 Wuhan virus AFTER being vaccinated), and the conspicuous absence of your name on the list of the already-vaccinated will be noted for future reference.

This is odd. When I go to the doctor, even the emergency room, I am required to present a photo ID. There’s a sign to that effect right at check-in. However, it is against the law for them to ask if I’m a citizen. A nurse told me Hispanics often give a fake name, which to me means, no ID. I am also required to present a photo ID when receiving medicine. Someone else on the forum was complaining about having to present an ID to receive the Covid vaccine. (As Victor David Hansen has pointed out, the law is only enforced against citizens. It does not apply to illegals.)

As far as I know, the requirement for an ID occurred because a college girl had checked her friend, who had no insurance, into the hospital using her name and her insurance. The girl died and the wrong parents were notified. Apparently, it caused some significant legal action and the ID requirement has sense proliferated. (Much as HIPPA has proliferated to the point of stupidity.)

[plain talk]

Yes.

[familyop]

If someone doesn’t have an ID, they can use their Social Security number instead, at least in some places.

[Jyotishi]

Yes, what color would you like?
