What Do I Do If I Lose My COVID-19 Vaccination Card?
You got the COVID-19 vaccine, they gave you a card, and you tucked it away someplace safe in case you needed it in the future. But now you can't remember where you put it and you truly need it for some reason or another.
There is a lot of talk in the news about vaccine cards and the requirements for having to show it for some reason or another to validate that you received one of the three shots. While widespread card-mandates haven't occurred, there are a variety of reasons you might need to have proof of the COVID-19 vaccine.
Similar to other vaccinations, some schools are requiring the vaccine to attend. Additionally, metropolitan areas that saw widespread cases of COVID-19 have put vaccine requirements in place for everything from entertainment venues to public transit.
At the very least, you'll need the card to coordinate your vaccine shots if you're getting the Pfizer or the Moderna shots. Both of these vaccines are two-shot sequences that require that the user gets the same manufacturers vaccine and within the correct window of time.
But back to the question: What do you do if you had a COVID-9 vaccine card and lost it?
First of all, don't panic. The world has not stopped and obtaining a replacement one is an option. You just need to know the protocols and steps.
