The form you show has room for other vaccines other than YF, so it could be used. The only problem is that millions of people have already had the vaccines and the info is not on their existing or new yellow card. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have one of these. It dates back to 196mumble and includes most of my basic immunizations. Now if only I hadn't lost my military shots records when my basement flooded. . . I'm going to laminate my covid vaccine card and store it in my fire safe with my passport so it will be handy and safe. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coo359a2 Posted February 16, 2021 #180 Share Posted February 16, 2021 DH had his second vaccine shot today at a County Health Department. He took in his yellow shot record that has his Yellow Fever Vaccine documented. He asked to have the Covid vaccine added to his shot record and they said it wasn't necessary. Just keep the CDC Covid shot card with the yellow shot record. We will keep the yellow shot record, CDC Covid card and the military computer printout of all our immunizations with his passport. Will do the same for me after I have my second Covid vaccine. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't keep our medical records but do have the first International Certificates of Vaccination issued to DH when he was at basic training in 1964 (got his first Yellow Fever shot at that time). Now we just carry the computer printout of all our immunizations/vaccinations given to us by the military immunization clinic. DH retired 34 years ago.

Only our Yellow Fever shot we got in 2018 is listed on the yellow card shown in caribill's post above. All our other vaccine/immunizations are listed on a computer print out from the military immunization clinic. The old yellow card DH got in 1964 when he enlisted was issued by the Dept of Health, Education, and Welfare and had separate pages to document being vaccinated for Smallpox, Yellow Fever and Cholera.

Rare stevenr597 Posted February 19, 2021 #190 Share Posted February 19, 2021 Perhaps some good news.

cheone Posted February 19, 2021 #192 Share Posted February 19, 2021 (edited) Johnson and Johnson asked for FDA Emergency use authorization 3 weeks ago. Moderna and Pfizer vaccines were approved in 7 days. Just watched Pres Bidens news conference at the Pfizer manufacturing plant, he said that he had to order an additional 200 million doses to vaccine 300 million. No mention of the 1 shot Johnson and Johnson vaccine. Anybody know why the Johnson and Johnson vaccine request will not be considered. USA has already purchased 100 million doses back in July.

The FDA announced its Vaccines and Related Biological Products Advisory Committee would meet on February 26 to discuss the request for emergency-use authorization for a COVID-19 vaccine from Janssen Biotech. (Janssen Biotech is the pharmaceutical part of Johnson and Johnson.) Once the committee meets, if it gives the vaccine the thumbs up, full FDA approval of the emergency-use authorization could come within a day or two. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pfizer submitted their EUA request on November 20. It was granted by the FDA on Dec 11. So it was 21 days, not 7. The length was similar for Moderna. J&J is expected to be around 24 days. Pfizer and Moderna were approved based upon their single large US trials. J&J has a more complex data set involving multiple trials in multiple countries. That requires more analysis and prep needed before the advisory committee meeting. Certainly within expected timeframes. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I certainly took it simply as an expression of extreme outrage. But to answer your question, how about an easily washed off bright neon pink dye applied to hands on entering a public washroom. (It shouldn't be difficult to have an automated mechanism to spray the dye when a latch plate was pressed to open the door.) People with bright pink hands can then be denied service and more hygienic individuals would know to avoid contact. 🙂 and maybe we can cut their fingers off each time they touch their face...

Tom😀 Yes I have the yellow fever vaccine with a yellow card from when I went to South America and I have Kaiser too. What's interesting is that Kaiser has no idea I got my moderna vaccination at CVS. I will let them know to add it to my medical record when I have my next appt but that won't be soon. There will always be scammers who might forge a vaccination card but it's them who would get sick, not me since I really am really vaccinated.
