What You Need to Know About Your Vaccine Card
The New York Times ^ | April 1, 2021 | By Concepción de León

Posted on 04/02/2021 7:04:01 PM PDT by thecodont

As vaccinations become more widely available for people in the United States and travel starts picking up, many people have started sharing their simple white vaccination cards on social media as prized new possessions.

With some destinations, cruise lines and venues already requiring travelers to provide proof of vaccination against Covid-19, keeping that record is key. In New York, for example, proof of vaccination or a recent negative test will be required for entry into large venues or catered events when they are allowed to reopen at reduced capacity on April 2. Proof will be required at events with more than 100 people, so anyone having a wedding or Sweet 16 with more attendees will have to ask guests for evidence that they are complying with the rules.

There are already a number of vaccination “passport” initiatives underway that would make vaccination status easy to share digitally. Clear, a biometric screening program used in airports across the country, and the technology company IBM have created their own passes, for instance. And last week, New York became the first state to introduce a digital tool to allow people to easily show that they have either tested negative or been inoculated against the virus in order to gain entry into some events and venues.

But until such measures are taken more widely across the country, you’ll want to hang onto that little white card.

Used “Anthrax Scare” as a tag, I think there should be a “COVID-19” tag added. After all, this scare has been going on an awful lot longer than the anthrax one.

Is there any central clearing house keeping a record of who has had a coronavirus vaccine? If not and it is completely relying on people to maintain a little white card, I think there’s going to be a huge business in counterfeit cards. Some people can even make counterfeit drivers licenses with all kinds of special metrics on it. I think the coronavirus card is a simple piece of heavy white paper with black writing on it

Remember the mark is something people want to have, they like it, they show it off. Its a status thing, apart from being able to buy and sell.

It's a NO from me.

I've never been COVID-19 tested, and I ain't getting no vaccine.

If you even TRY to inject that poison into my glorious naked body, I will dismantle you.

Seems like a vaccination card would be a HIPAA violation.

I will not have one for SARS-covid-2

So the NYT can sit on it and spin until they throw up.
