Anyone laminate their vax card?

Not that I'm bringing it anywhere wet/muddy but I'm trying to not ruin it. It's been in my wallet this whole time and has that well pressed look wallets do, ya know? My parents put my SSN card in a plastic sleeve and now it's kind of glued inside it so I'm not sure if it's the best idea or not.

You shouldn’t laminate it. The way things are going people will need to start getting booster shots and they’ll add another entry on your card for said booster.

You only will need your vaccine card at one point in time in order to get into centeroo, after you get your entrance wristband just keep the card locked up in your car the rest of the weekend.

Second this! But also if you laminate it and do end up getting a booster, your clinic will just give you a new one! So no worries either way

My nurse that gave me my second shot said to make a copy of it and laminate the copy. And to keep the original in a safe place.

I laminated mine. Wish I had just got a pocket protector for it, but it is what it is.

One of my buddies has his laminated and they did give him a health check wrist band. Go for it.

I know you can't laminate your ss card, so I'd assume you can't with a vax card either. They might not accept it

I can’t find my actual card, but I have a digital version with a QR code so I’m hoping they don’t have any issues with that

I would bring the real deal or a verifiable digital version.

I'm bringing a laminated copy, too afraid to lose my real one. I'll be keeping a pic on my phone just in case they don't accept the copy (the odds of them being that picky are slim imo, was at a local festival last weekend and they barely looked)

Would I be able to bring a scanned copy?

Dont worry, Donna can just scribble a new card out for you when you get the next round of booster shots. They're basically just fill in the blank flashcards. Laminate and meditate my friend!

I got mine laminated back in April. I feel like they can just copy all the old info onto a fresh card if they need to when I get a booster

Doesn’t it say on it not to laminate it??

I made a copy and laminated it. I left the original at home, if they don’t accept it, I have a negative test queued up ready to show them. No way I’m bringing the original card with me to mudaroo.

I didn't laminate it. I ordered this vax card holder to stash it.
