Fake COVID vaccination cards are spreading like a virus online
NY Post ^ | 4/9/2021 | Crystal Bell

A black market in fake vaccination record cards is reaching epidemic proportions online.

Fraudsters have been hawking knock-offs of the three-by-four-inch cards on retail sites including eBay, Etsy and Shopify, as well as on the social media sites Facebook and TikTok, the New York Times reported this week.

The Post, meanwhile, has found dozens of online DIY guides for printing fake vaccination cards at home.

The counterfeiting has ballooned in recent weeks following news that an official vaccination card could soon become a central requirement to travel on airplanes and attend events.

And sellers and buyer are breaking federal law by falsifying vaccine documents and fraudulently reproducing the Center Centers for Disease Control and Prevention logo, which is featured on every card’s upper right hand corner.

In warning that counterfeiters risk prosecution, the Federal Bureau of Investigation advises, “if you did not receive the vaccine, do not buy fake vaccine cards, do not make your own vaccine cards, and do not fill-in blank vaccination record cards with false information.”

The vaccine passport cards will soon have to have an attachment for all the booster shots required to keep them up to date.

“Fake COVID vaccination cards”

What an outrage! This just can’t be! Fake birth certificates, fake driver’s license, fake passports, fake college degrees, fake travelers checks and fake $100 dollar bills we can all live with but fake vaccine cards are unconscionable.

Next thing there will be fake presidents and fake women.

The unauthorized use of an official government agency's seal (such as HHS or the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)) is a crime, and may be punishable under Title 18 United States Code, Section 1017, and other applicable laws.

This is a very predictable outcome when a government is over-reaching against the people regarding something that is not necessary at all.

We don’t show our vaccination records for any of the other deadly diseases. In fact I think many adults would be hard pressed to produce such records.

Second if a person is vaccinated, they have nothing to fear. If you are unvaccinated you made your choice and if you get severely ill, you will have treatment and lifesaving treatment at the expense of your health insurance company.

These shots are under EUA and not FDA approved. Therefore they cannot be ‘required’ for anything. Not work, not school, not travel, not events, etc. I think now might be a great time to start to consider filing class action lawsuits. Covering improper use of the shot EUA, privacy and our ability to be secure in our persons, to HIPPA violations.

If another country wants to verify your shot status ...you have little choice if you want to visit them, but to travel here in the United States the Federal government at the present time does not require it for living here.

It is time to start threatening to sue the pants off these companies.

I remember when registering my kids to school a lot of years ago I had to show the school their shot records. Also my dog has a vaccine record I must show anytime I want to board her or groom her. I’m against vaccine records but I think this is where they get this idea.

These vaccines have EUA, Emergency Use Authorization. They are not FDA approved.

“WHAT IS AN EMERGENCY USE AUTHORIZATION (EUA)?
The United States FDA has made the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine available under an emergency access mechanism called an EUA. The EUA is supported by a Secretary of Health and Human Services (HHS) declaration that circumstances exist to justify the emergency use of drugs and biological products during the COVID-19 pandemic.

The Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine has not undergone the same type of review as an FDA-approved or cleared product.

FDA may issue an EUA when certain criteria are
met, which includes that there are no adequate, approved, available alternatives. In addition, the FDA decision is based on the totality of scientific evidence available
showing that the product may be effective to prevent COVID-19 during the COVID-19 pandemic and that the known and potential benefits of the product outweigh the known
and potential risks of the product. All of these criteria must be met to allow for the product to be used in the treatment of patients during the COVID-19 pandemic.

The EUA for the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine is in effect for the duration of the COVID-19 EUA declaration justifying emergency use of these products, unless
terminated or revoked (after which the products may no longer be used)
