I can't imagine why anyone would have a problem with showing their covid vaccine card. You can even cover up the ID number with a little post-it strip so they can see your name and the clinic's official stamp and the dates of whichever vaccine you had, but not your personally-identifying ID number.

It's really not a big deal, except to people who are choosing to make it one.
That sounds a lot like, "if you have nothing to hide then you won't mind allowing the police to search your house." No, it's not the same level of intrusion but it is still an intrusion.

My personal opinion is I've seen enough and experienced enough that I value my freedom and my privacy; I want to protect mine and protect others as well. What frightens me is the argument that I should be willing to give up my freedom and privacy because someone else is willing to give up theirs.
