I was paying for something the other day and I noticed my Covid card in my wallet. I thought, "I don't think I need this any more."
Assuming you got a Covid vaccine (let's not turn this into a debate) do you carry yours also?

No. I never carried it. Kept it in a safe place and carried a copy. No one has ever asked to see it.
I often have forms thar ask for the dates, but not the card. That has not happened in a while.

No, I haven’t for a very long time - I have digital copies for the whole family on my phone (they have theirs on their phones too) and that sufficed everywhere here for proof. I’ve only taken the physical cards when we’ve gotten boosters and when we went to Canada.

In Ontario, Canada, they gave us a covid receipt via text and I saved it in my apple wallet. It remains in my apple wallet. If I cross into the USA, I have to show proof of vaccination.

No. My health care updates with each booster and I can get a scan-able code download to my phone. Easy-peasy... I only carried my card when we went to Hawaii since mandates were still in place.

Unless we were traveling, I never carried it on me. It was always kept in the safe. We went to California in February and we did take them. Not sure why but it seemed like a good idea. I also have a copy of them on my phone just in case.

I never carried it on a regular basis, only if I was going somewhere that I needed to show it. I am actually wondering if we still need to even keep it anymore.

I used it once on a flight and don't even know if I kept it anywhere. Probably not.

I only carried it for the first six months I guess. I had to have it last year for a cruise but otherwise generally I never carried it after that first six months.
I keep it with my passport in the safe. I wouldn't get rid of it. It might be a pain in the butt if you have to show it at some point.

Now that you mention it, yes, it is still in my wallet because I forgot all about it. I also have my vaccination record on my phone or could access it straight from Kaiser’s website again if I needed it. Now that you have mentioned it, I’ll pull it from my wallet later today.

Yes, it’s still in my wallet. I just noticed it there yesterday, but wasn’t home so I left it in place.
We live in Europe until last fall and for a while, you needed to show proof of your vaccination to enter restaurants, museums, and other tourist spots. So I always had it at hand.

I have never carried it - and have never been asked to show it either. There is a photo of it in my phone just in case I ever need it.

I have a printed copy with my passport and a digital version on my health app. I don’t consciously think about it. They’re just there from before.

Mine lives in my passport holder with a copy of my dogs rabies cert. things I need when traveling (which I do a lot). But probably can remove it now? One hopes?

I never carried it. We only ever had to show it once to go to a performance in 2021.

I do, but simply because of laziness/forgetfulness, not because I think I'll need it. I use one of those small backpack purses and mine has a flat zippered pocket on the back, that sits flat up on my back...it's a security type pocked where you could put your passport or ID if you were traveling. Anyway, I've always kept some cash back there, my spare credit card, and that's where I tucked the vaccination card. I totally forgot it was there until I saw this thread. lol.

I only had to show it once or twice for travel and I had to email a copy of it to the place I volunteer (hospice) "back in the day."
I put it with my passport quite some time ago figuring that might be the only thing I might need it for.

I have mine in my wallet. My job requires me to go in/out of assisted livings and nursing homes on a regular basis and for 2020 and quite a bit of 2021 I had to show my vaccination card for entry. I just never took it out of my wallet.

I have the card locked up with other important documents. When we traveled to Italy last year, we had to present the card before boarding our flight. I purchased a protective cover with a pocket for my passport on one side, and vaccination card on another. It still sits in that cover with my passport.

It’s in my wallet but I never pull it out unless I am getting a booster.

I do, but I suppose I can file it. I used it a lot to attend theatre in NYC, but I had it scanned into an app anyway and really didn't need the original.
