Vaccinations

The vaccination card can't possibly be considered to be a certificate. Mine has two stickers on an otherwise blank card. What kind of official document would be needed to get on a vaccinated-only cruise ship? I don't think it could be that card or the downloaded pdf certificate. Either could be easily forged.

I apologize if this has been mentioned already but...

Tonight, Wednesday, 3/10 at 8pm you can watch the South Park Vaccine Special on Comedy Central.

If you have never watched South Park you will likely be addicted or repulsed.

Either way, don't blame the messenger.

My wife doesn't have a vaccination certificate on the Vams site. That's probably because she was my plus one and had to register manually both times. The only entry in Vams is that she had cancelled her first appointment after becoming my plus one.

So, we're off to get our second shot in a few hours. I just called 211 about the lost card and surprisingly waited only a few minutes to speak with someone. She assured me that they would have our records but to bring the downloaded certificate from the VAMS site (as Slickcraft described) for additional confirmation of the first shot.
Will update later.

You're right, the cards with the CDC logo are already being counterfeited, but for the time being are considered acceptable by some places requiring proof.

THANK YOU for motivating me to find my state's official immunization records website (it wasn't easy), register, and get actual proof. I've now saved in my computer and printed that one out, too. In a couple of weeks we're going to NY, which has recently lifted quarantine & testing requirements for out of state visitors who are fully vaccinated — no indication of what will be considered “proof.”

I think most states have a similar data base. For anybody here who happens to be a Maryland resident, this is it:

Just got second Pfizer. Be warned that LRCC is no longer giving shots. Moved to Belknap mall. They asked for cert. cards from first shot but didn't need them. They also wrote new cards for the second shot.

I'm trying to register for vaccine this morning as part of Phase 2b. As of 8:45am the front page of the web site says it's down for maintenance and will open at 8 am, and lacks a Register Now button. If you go thru the Do I qualify? button, answer the questions, you then get a register now button. I got all the way thru the process. But when fill in my personal info, I got stuck because the State and County menus won't fill with choices, nor can you type text into them. So still waiting for them to correct this....

I got all my personal info entered now. But when pushing the next button a red error message flashes at the top. something about VAMS. I thought VINI was replacing VAMS. Stilling pushing Next .....

Next finally suceeded. Got my email back from the State to Activate my account. Did so. Then trying to schedule. I can see sites and next available date. But when I click See Availability, it says:
Please select an available appointment slot below.

Hmmm, but only empty white space below. Still repeating.....

Got it scheduled 2 hrs and 57 min after I started trying the website.

Well I am happy to report that after much gyration an appointment has been made for our first vaccination!

Or... it could be our only one because it seems that the brand of the shot is not disclosed.

I'm just happy to get this rolling before the murder hornets return.

I'd hold on to every document you can. Other countries are opening restaurants to serve people who can document their vaccinations. (New mentions of the "green pass").

"According to the regulations, in order to eat inside a restaurant a specially appointed staff member, like a host, must check the patron's green pass or vaccination/recovery certificate, which can be done by scanning the pass's QR or barcode, before they can be seated. Those without the green pass can only be seated outdoors, according to the government regulations".
