1. Start dialingÂ
Begin by calling the location where you received your immunization. That can be a drugstore, a doctor’s office, or your city or state’s public health department.
Every place that is responsible for administrating the vaccines against Covid-19 keeps records of the patients, which shot they gave people, and when. Furthermore, they should be able to make and send you another card.
In addition to that, there are many places that have an online verification system, where you can enter your information and request a replacement card, or you can even download one and print it.
2. Reach out to IIS
There are some states that are also developing personal QR codes, which contain people’s vaccination status. Moreover, they keep personal information, such as the date of birth, private.
If you are not able to contact your provider, or you received your shots at a mass-vaccination site, then you should do what the CDS recommends. That means contacting the immunization information system of your state’s health department (IIS).
Immunizations against SARS-CoV-2 must be reported to the state’s IIS by all vaccination providers. Each state’s IIS is included on the CDC’s website, including contact information.
Usually, it will take around two weeks to obtain a copy of the immunization record from the state health department. However, this period is not standard, and it can vary from a state to another. Some states will give you a second physical card, while other states can provide you with a digital record.
