At least a dozen colleges and universities have already announced that they require students to become immunized before they return to campus in the fall.
Companies are currently weighing whether they will require employees and patrons to present proof of vaccination as a condition of employment or engaging in business.
In the meantime, here's what experts say you should know about vaccination cards.
The first thing experts recommend once you've been vaccinated is taking a digital photograph of both sides of your personal record card.
You can also scan the card and save the file on a laptop or desktop, said Megan Ranney, an emergency physician at Rhode Island Hospital and an associate professor at Brown University.
One thing you shouldn't do: Share your personal proof of inoculation on social media sites, which could lead to identity theft because the CDC card includes a person's date of birth as well as first name and last name.

It is a unique identifier that could allow somebody to potentially steal your identity so I would first be careful about that," epidemiologist Danielle Ompad, a professor at the NYU School of Global Public Health, told CBS MoneyWatch.
By contrast, you may want to print a copy of the photo of the vaccination card and store it in your wallet.
While some experts advise against having the original card laminated, so that booster shots of vaccine can be added if that becomes necessary, others say that's OK because a more sophisticated record-keeping system is likely to be in place by then.
