Prosecute fake vaccine cards

“The Senate’s top Democrat says federal law enforcement officials need to crack down on fake COVID-19 vaccination cards being sold online,” ABC News reported on Sunday, August 15, 2021 (read story here).

Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-NY) wants to go after those making and selling the fake vaccination cards, but law enforcement should go after those using them, too.

Here’s the deal: The real cards have the CDC’s logo on them. The CDC is a federal agency. “The unauthorized use of the seal of an official government agency is a federal crime that carries a possible fine and a up to five years in prison.”

That’s the crime you’re committing if you use a fake vaccine card to get into a workplace, onto an airplane, or into a bar or restaurant. Five years. Think about it. If you endanger others, you deserve to have the book thrown at you.
