Need Another COVID-19 Vaccination Card? |
|
If you have lost your CDC COVID-19 Vaccination Record card or don’t have a copy, contact your vaccination provider directly to access your vaccination record. If you cannot contact your vaccination provider site directly, contact your state health department’s (California Immunization Registry). Vaccination providers are required to report COVID-19 vaccinations to their IIS and related systems.
-
If you enrolled in v-safe or VaxText after your first vaccine dose, you can access your vaccination information using those tools.
- If you have made every effort to locate your vaccination information, are unable to get a copy or replacement of your vaccination card, and need another COVID-19 vaccine dose, talk to a vaccination provider.
CDC does not maintain vaccination records or determine how vaccination records are used, and CDC does not provide the white CDC-labeled COVID-19 Vaccination Record card to people. These cards are distributed to vaccination providers by state health departments. Please contact California Immunization Registry if you have additional questions about vaccination records. Your local or state health department can also provide more information about the laws or regulations in your area.

The American Red Cross blood supply is currently at its lowest level in over 10 years. Please schedule your next donation appointment today. Help ensure blood is available to support patients’ ongoing needs, including emergency situations like car crashes, household accidents, and more.
The Red Cross provides about 40% of the nation’s blood supply, and patients rely on volunteer donors like you to help them heal. Please make this act of service a priority this year. You can even invite a friend to donate at the same center or blood drive so that you two can catch up.
Additionally Red Cross has partnered with the NFL this January to urge individuals to give blood and help tackle this shortage. As a thank-you for your immediate help, you’ll automatically be entered for a chance to win a getaway to Super Bowl LVI in Los Angeles when you come to give blood this January!* As an extra thank-you from the Red Cross, those who come to donate by January 31st will also be automatically entered to win a home theater package and a $500 e-gift card.
COVID-19 Precautions
You may still donate after receiving a COVID-19 vaccination. Knowing the name of the manufacturer is critical in determining your blood donation eligibility.
The Red Cross follows the highest standards of safety and infection control. For the safety of donors and staff, the Red Cross will require all those at blood drives and blood donation centers to resume wearing face masks regardless of their vaccination status. Valve face masks are not permitted. Face shields can be worn in addition to face masks but not as a substitute.
