Well I mean without a consolidated NatID there aren’t very many viable ways to actually index that kind of stuff
They could have been a plastic card with rfid tags or even just a qr code that directs to the CDC site with a name, picture, and vax status. It doesn’t need to link to ssn number or driver’s license number.
Hey NWO conspiracy big brains. I thought this was supposed to be a permanent visa?
I’m still waiting for the vaccine to kill me. They promised I only had 2 years, but here I am…
Wait, the 5G alert that went out earlier today didn’t activate the nanite shed and turn you into a zombie?
Huh, you must have gotten one of those placebo shots.
2 years? Damn mine promised to kill me in short 6 months. Still waiting though, so you might have got the better deal…

I’m gonna keep mine and pull it out when I want to revisit the time I got on 95 in New Hampshire the day after they announced everything is shut down.
Just me.
Normally, it’s thousands of cars.
Just me, lol. I was laughing my ass off and just kept saying, “No way, man. No fucking way.” That was so wild.
I just remember gas being 1.99 and thinking how crazy that was.
And they were still bullshitting us at that price. They hit negative numbers. Were paying oil barrel buyers to store it. Negative prices.
Mid to late 90’s in Georgia (US) when I heard OPEC would start limiting barrel sales. We were at $0.63/gallon. Knew I’d never see that again. The days of pocket/couch change road trips.
Crude isn’t RBOB. Converting crude oil (which went negative) into automobile gas (which didn’t) is a process that takes time/work, and not everyone has the infrastructure to do it. Crude also loses the ability to convert to RBOB in time, so if you buy and can’t convert or use it otherwise in time, it’s wasted money. Crude went negative but RBOB didn’t, and auto gas companies were making only their usual profit off of it at the time.
Yep. Essential healthcare worker here. Spent every day feeling like I was living in an apocalypse movie during my commute. Normal 30+ min commute was 22 minutes.
Los angeles freeways were empty! It was beautiful. Everyone on them were flying at 80mph with zero accidents.
Yeah, it was eerie. I was “essential” and driving in during what would normally be rush hour and only seeing two cars the whole way was wild.
I lived in a major city at the time, the sidewalks were insanely empty. I was the only person for 3 blocks at one point, blocks that are usually absolutely packed. When everyone started coming back, and I lost my peaceful big city… >:[
Same here. I was alone on the 405 by LAX. It was surreal.
Oh man, I can’t imagine. I live in the south. Learned to drive in Atlanta. I can’t even imagine
Learned to drive in Atlanta.
Having driven in Atlanta, all I can say is I’m sorry.
When I was 15 and learning to drive my dad lived in Atlanta. I went there for a visit once and he had me drive there, and everywhere for the whole week. My first experience driving on an interstate included going 90 around the perimeter full of other cars going faster than me and requiring getting from one onramp and moving over 4 lanes to get tot he next exit in half a mile. It was terrifying and I definitely cut waaayyy too many people off driving into town and I’m shocked I didn’t cause a wreck. That was always his teaching style, just throwing me into the deep end. It’s still burned into my brain as one of the most dangerous things I’ve done (And that’s a long list). But, when I had to go into my drivers ed class the following school year I was the only one who was at all comfortable on the interstate and one of the best drivers in the class.
I don’t recommend teaching things that way and I’d never do that with my children, but damn was it effective since I didn’t die. Not dying was probably a close call though.
The motorways of Atlanta are comically bad. Everyone is cutting eachother off and going 40+ mph over the speed limit, traffic jams galore. If you have to go somewhere that’s 5 miles away in Atlanta, it is going to probably take you 30 minutes at best, but most likely an hour.
That’s how driving on 90 or Route 9 east into Boston was. Normally a nightmare but on Route 9 I’d hit green lights the whole way.
1 hour commute turned into 15-20 minutes
I lamented mine already. Its value will go up ten years from now.
Laminated?
Lamented, yup
They lose their value if you laminate them. You wouldn’t laminate Action Comics #1, would you?
Wouldn’t undamaged laminated comics be worth more than unlaminated damaged ones?
an obviously important step in the Illuminati plan to keep tabs on everyone.
I brought mine with me when I got the latest booster, and the pharmacist said that she hadn’t seen one of those in a long time.
Brought mine too, realized it was full, so the pharmacist offered me a new one. It only has two slots for boosters, which seems ridiculously optimistic now.
I brought mine to my booster two weeks ago, and the last spot was still empty (I couldn’t get the first shot for like six months after it was available). The woman giving the shot didn’t even mention it, and I forgot about it until I’d already left.
Maybe I should have asked for it and then for a free ice cream or something.
I threw mine out long ago. I live in a deep red state, and nobody ever asked for them anyways.
I lived in a fairly liberal city (Denver) and nobody has cared at all since mid-2021. Funny thing is Covid rates have gone up and down since then, but if you didn’t have it in 2021 some people acted like you were a total heathen.
yeah when Alpha variant was fucking killing people
More Delta at its height there, but anyway, I just meant that Covid never stopped killing people.
The only time I was ever asked for my vaccination card was by a healthcare client at a previous gig. I’ve had more cards than I’ve had questions about it.
Gonna frame mine with the title “Free CDC Cardstock”
I filled mine up a while back and just use the one on my phone wallet. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Wait, no prize for a full card? WTH, you sure?
The prize is not getting horribly sick or dying of COVID. I got it once in the very beginning pre-vaccine, and it was 12 days of the worst misery I’d ever experienced. No thanks on a repeat of that!
I’m going to still keep mine in my medical bag along with my other meds since I’m immune compromised. Just in case, etc.
I’m flying to Ireland in March for a batchelorette party and my friend was putting the tickets on her card. She asked for my covid Vax card, and I was like: do they still require that??
They don’t.

How messy is your wallet that you don’t know?
My wallet consists of my health card and drivers license. Everything else is via Google Pay, and I’ve not carried cash in Canada for over a decade and a half.
The hell you carrying around?
Do you not encounter places that take cards but don’t have Google Pay technology yet? That happens here in the US. That’s why I carry a card with me.
Nope. Canada has had tap to pay for as long as I can remember. When Android Pay rolled out, nothing really changed. We just tap our phones instead of the physical card now.

At one point people couldn’t even go to a sporting event without one. Now it’s, “Just kidding.”. Idiots
