Fake Covid Vaccination Cards Are on the Rise

Freedom from Sanity
What tyranny was directed towards them? They're still doing what they please, with the approval of the media and government.
I don't recall Fox News or Breitbart being particularly supportive of either movement, and I also recall police crackdowns and vigilante violence directed against them. In fact, I recall the Trump administration publically declaring Antifa a terrorist organization.

But I guess they didn't literally murder all of them, a sure sign that they had gone soft against "ghetto thugs" and "the real fascists".

Was the smiley face to try to convince us that you were just joking but in reality, have been vaccinated and don't need a phony card?

For me, at least, it didn't work.
Smiley face was just for fun. I have had covid and don't need a vaccination.

I'm glad you recovered. Stay safe out there.

I hope you opt to get vaccinated when you can, like all eligible people should (in my opinion) in order to get this pandemic under control.

I'm not sure exactly what "under control" looks like. Like every other virus, people still get it and variants appear. Flu vaccines haven't really got anything under control... though it reduces the amount of people who get it:

]While vaccine effectiveness (VE) can vary, recent studies show that flu vaccination reduces the risk of flu illness by between 40% and 60% among the overall population during seasons when most circulating flu viruses are well-matched to the flu vaccine. In general, current flu vaccines tend to work better against influenza B and influenza A(H1N1) viruses and offer lower protection against influenza A(H3N2) viruses.

Personally, I wonder if the old "do exercise, take more vitamin C, zinc, selenium and magnesium" would have more effect?

Can we get voters ID? Last I heard, my medical history is personal. :)
Some aspects of med history cannot be though.
For example, if you had AIDS, this must be disclosed
to anyone you have contact with, & could transmit it to.
Your status as a Typhoid Mary is similar in that the
health of people we might infect & kill trumps our
right to privacy.
Those who feel strongly that they shouldn't cooperate
in verifying they're free of the plague might find that
some people, organizations, & businesses will refuse
service. We've no right to compel them.

I'm not sure that is applicable.

AIDS is incurable.

A proper analogy would to associate it with the Spanish Flu or any other cold. We never asked for a Spanish Flu vaccine report card or a pneumonia report card et al.

This sounds more like forcing a new method, (changing DNA) on people who may not want to be a guinea pig for the testing.

AIDS is quite survivable now.

The Spanish flu was a century ago, & it had no vaccine
(attempts to create one notwithstanding). Things have
changed since then.
If a form of pneumonia becomes as pandemic as
Covid 19, we could expect them to be treated similarly.

That's a common misconception.
The vaccines don't change your DNA.
COVID-19 Vaccines: Myth Versus Fact'

Anti-vaxers are very concerned with their own rights.
But they don't consider the rights of others.
So they should be prepared to be denied access
to businesses who have the right to protect their
workers & customers.
 

Twilight Hue

Twilight, not bright nor dark, good nor bad.
Proof of vaccination is required in parts of the U.S. and Europe to dine indoors, go to museums and attend large sporting events.

The spread of such rules has created a market for counterfeit certificates for the unvaccinated. In recent weeks, schemes to sell illegal proof of vaccination have multiplied on social-media sites, messaging apps such as Telegram and on the dark web, according to government investigators and cybersecurity experts.

“As a segment of the population tries to avoid the new measures, the dark net reacts to the real market and thus demand gives birth to offers,” said Dmitry Galov, a researcher at cybersecurity firm Kaspersky who has been tracking the sale of fake certificates since March.

In the U.S., fake vaccination cards purportedly issued by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention have appeared for sale on sites such as Amazon, eBay and Etsy. In May, officers arrested a bar owner in California for allegedly selling fake vaccination cards costing $20 each. The alleged perpetrator was charged with identity theft, forging government documents and falsifying medical records.

HIV is the virus that causes AIDS. HIV and AIDS are not the same thing. And people with HIV do not always have AIDS.
