At the virtual A G M some members reported getting the above certificate signed following a Covid vaccination and finding it accepted abroad.
I have just had my second jab at my local surgery here in Wales but the nurse carrying it out decline to sign my certificate saying they had not been told to do so.
I have been given a record card but it doesn't look so 'official' as the yellow booklet.
What has been the experience of other U K members?

How do you obtain the yellow booklet ? Due my second vaccine and would like to try and get it signed.

It's a yellow fever certificate of vaccination. You get it when you get vaccinated against yellow fever. But it also has space for a permanent record of other vaccinations. It's great because I didn't remember that I had been vaccinated against rabies. And it specifies which manufacturers vaccines you received.

You can read about it here.

It is an internationally recognized document created by the WHO. All vaccinations can/should be noted. Various countries require it when you arrive. I know we had to show them in Ecuador.
Of course you could make a fake but that is also true for ships papers, certificates of competence and insurance and so on.

I look forward to the EU digital certificate but will not be destroying my "yellow book"
