I say: "show your vaccine card"

If you want to work in a state or govt job, you have to be vaccinated. If you want to fly on a plane: have to prove you’ve been vaccinated. Want to take public transportation: show the card. (Of course, this is after every person has been given the opportunity to be fully vaccinated). Want to go to a baseball game? Show the card!

Just my opinion.

No, you don't have to do whatever you don't want to do, but neither do we have to do what YOU want us to do.

A "digital Green Card" coming soon...

Possibly will link all your official vaccination records for travel

There will be folks, mainly poor folks, who will be delayed and delayed on the vaccine until they finally fight so hard they get it. Many will need public transportation to get it. For months, people who want it will be waiting and waiting. But eventually? Yes.

On a *copy* of the original. Filled in the blanks for other vaccines with the pneumonia and shingles vaccines dates.

However, left the original blank spaces blank because there might be 3rd booster later.

Seemed odd to me. I was in the military years ago, and we never had a choice - I don't think they even bothered TELLING us what shots we were getting. But apparently, because the vaccines don't yet have final FDA approval, the military is not mandating it. A LOT of the military is not signing up for it.

but they kept a record with your medical records and you could get a copy. In fact, I'm a little surprised you didn't get a copy of your vaccine records upon separation. I know I did.

most places are telling you to bring your first vaccine card to your second appointment.

I didn't get a card, and it didn't go through my regular insurance or medical providers, so its not even in my normal medical records as yet.

when I got 2nd Moderna. Was told there may eventually be a vax marker on driver's license similar to the Real ID star for flying. That would be difficult to forge but it could also require updating if boosters become necessary.

Flying into various foreign countries, you needed to show a "international shot record" upon entry. Certain vaccinations were required for visitors, and if you were not current on your shots, they would give you whatever you needed.

If you refused to get the shot, they would refuse entry. Not sure when they stopped doing this.
