Sharing a picture of your COVID-19 vaccine card on social media is the new popular thing to do. It shows everyone that youve had at least one dose of the vaccine.<\/p>\n

The Better Business Bureau warned against the idea last week. It says that there is self-identifying information on the card. If you arent careful, it could make it easier for people to steal your identity, or help scammers create fake versions of the vaccine card.<\/p>\n
