Here are some helpful tips to keep in mind when it comes to handling your vaccination card:

  • DO keep your vaccination card between doses and afterwards.
  • DO take photos of the front and back of your card to have a digital copy handy. Consider e-mailing it to yourself, creating an album, or adding a tag to the photo so you can find it again easily.
  • DO take a photocopy if you want to carry one with you.
  • DON'T throw it away or lose it!
  • DON'T post a selfie online showing your vaccination card. Instead take a selfie and use our digital stickers by searching for #vaccinateWA or #wadoh! Remember to tag @WADeptHealth.
  • DON'T laminate your original card. You may choose to laminate a photocopy to carry with you.
