PSA: Those boosted, have you signed up for vsafe again?

If you signed up after previous covid or flu vaxes, just register again. The system will text you a link, then a verification code to put into site.

Easy peasy. 👍

1. I never knew about this.

Thanks. I signed up.

[SheltieLover]

2. Yw!

I took grandson for 3rd Pfizer yesterday & was waiting alo day for them to text me a link for his check in. Then it dawned on me! Duh! Must sign up after each shot. So I did & thought maybe others might have forgotten or, as you said, maybe never knew of this program.

It literally takes less than a minute to complete tge check ins.

3. It's been a month since my third jab - am I too late?

I had a few minor reactions the next day but that’s about it. Will my current status be useful to anyone else?

[SheltieLover]

5. Register & find out.

I would think they can use all the data they can get!

[BlueIdaho]

6. Thanks!

[SheltieLover]

7. Yw! There is a text box, so you can explain

[Brainfodder]

16. Within 6 weeks is the cut-off according to text on screen within the running app sample in that ad.

4. Even after reading the web page, I still can tell what it is

" v-safe will start your initial health check-in "

???

8. K&R for exposure

9. Thx, MLB!

10. Doesn't The County Board Of Health...

...or state Department of Public Health already have these data.
The CDC gets their data directly from counties or state offices.
Isn't this redundant?

[SheltieLover]

11. Not that I know of.

Could be a privacy issue, as smart phone is required to receive texts & tap link to access check in form.

[ProfessorGAC]

12. CDC Definitely Compiles Data...

...submitted by county boards of health. It's the same sources Worldometer & Johns-Hopkins uses.
And, at least here in Illinois, the counties keep records & submit to the state (IDPH).
When I got my booster the lady at CVS called me up on the computer to compare my card to their records. I got my first 2 shots in a different county, but she found my records.
Maybe all the states aren't the same.

[SheltieLover]

14. Yes they do

But maybe some would complain if they received a text requesting post-vax follow up.

[SharonClark]

13. Never heard of it so I clicked on your link.

Still don’t know what the purpose of it is.

[SheltieLover]

15. It is a post vax symptom tracker

To help scientists by providing info.

[SharonClark]

17. Thank you.

[Lucid Dreamer]

18. Got boosted. They registered me for vsafe and I participated.

I hope the data will be of some help.

19. I just went to the website and re-entered some information to access my current account.

They found my prior records and reactivated my account.

Click register, and on the next page you're given a link to a page where you can access your existing account. You don't need to remember any codes or passwords. It's easy.

20. I registered a long time ago and will update my file for the booster
