CDC Ceases Production and Distribution of COVID-19 Vaccination Cards

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has stopped printing new COVID-19 vaccination cards now that vaccines are being distributed through commercial markets instead of by the federal government. The discontinuation of the cards is not expected to have a significant impact, as most venues no longer require them for entry. Individuals can still use their existing cards as proof of vaccination, but those who need their immunization records will have to request them from the clinic, pharmacy, or health department where they received the shot. Some states offer digital vaccination records, while others may take longer to provide records, and there is no national registry for immunization records.
