PROOF OF COVID-19 VACCINATIONS FOR ENTRY AT SBCC/SBCSC EVENTS

For the safety and peace of mind of everyone attending events hosted by SBCC/SBCSC, we are requiring all attendees to be fully vaccinated and be able to present proof of vaccinations upon registering for the events or checking in at the event venue. “Fully vaccinated” is defined as at least two pfizer doses, two Moderna doses, or one Johnson & Johnson dose within the past 12 months (additional booster doses are preferred). If you cannot be vaccinated for any reason (such as medical conditions), some Club events may accept on-site antigen negative testing results if time allowed and test kits are available. Please check with the event organizer if you have any questions.

To help expedite the check-in process of any event, we recommend all attendees to submit their proof of vaccinations prior to arriving at the event - and preferably at the time of RSVP but no later than one week before the event.

Acceptable proofs are:

1. The CDC issued “COVID-19 Vaccination Record Card” (the paper card that was filled out each time you got vaccinated)

2. The “Personal Digital COVID-19 Vaccine Record Smart Health Card” with QR code (that you can download from CA.gov website)

3. The “CLEAR COVID-19 Digital Vaccination Card”

4. Any “CLEAR Health Pass” (such as those required to attend events in venues such as the SAP Center, Chase Center, etc. or the ones you need to visit Hawaii without COVID-19 testing or quarantine.)

5. Any publicly accepted verifiable vaccination record such as those integrated with Apple Health App.

How to submit proof of vaccinations ahead of the event:

1. For Item 1 above, you can take a photo of the CDC “COVID-19 Vaccination Record Card” and email it as an attached file to the email address specified by the Event.

2. For Item 2 above, you can take a screenshot of the “Personal Digital COVID-19 Vaccine Record Smart Health Card” and forward it as an attached file in an email.

3. Note: since both record cards in 1 and 2 above do not include a personal photo, you maybe asked to present a personal ID with a photo (such as your driver license) to verify the card belongs to you. We will not keep any of the records as soon as your proof is accepted and verified - that is, we will delete anything received from you immediately after the event except your name and your contact information that will be retained for “contact tracing” purposes.

4. Item 3 is our preferred proof of vaccinations because it does not require another piece of personal ID (the CLEAR Digital Vaccine Card) has your photo on it already and the one you can share with us will not contain any personal information such as your date of birth (which is included in the first 2 vaccine cards). You will need to do additional effort to obtain a free CLEAR digital health card but it is worth it since pretty much most public event venues (such as SAP Center, Chase Center, etc.) are now accepting (or requiring) CLEAR Health Pass for entry - including travels to Hawaii, etc. Below is a step-by-step instruction for obtaining a CLEAR COVID-19 digital record card.

5. Item 4 is for those who already have received a CLEAR Health Pass that is still valid (not expired). You can simply share it with us ahead of time using the same method outlined in 4 above; or show us on your smart phone during check in at our event.

6. Item 5 or any other verifiable vaccination record App may be shared with us by sending us a screenshot of the vaccination record.

7. The event organization will notify you via email whether or not your proof has been accepted. Please keep the email as your record in case questions arises during check in.

Instructions for obtaining a CLEAR digital Vaccine Record Card:

1. Download the free CLEAR app from Google Pay or Apple Store and tap on the “digital vaccine card” tile.

2. Enroll for free by uploading a government-issued ID and snapping a quick selfie to confirm you are you.

3. Once you are signed up and log into the CLEAR App, you may see a screen as shown in Figure 1.

4. Click on the “Digital vaccine card” tile (you may need to scroll down as CLEAR may add more tiles on top.)

5. Click on the “ADD MY VACCINATION” button or follow the screen to add your vaccination info (CLEAR sometimes has different screen views depending where you come from and whether it’s an Apple or Android phone. Just follow the on screen instructions to add your vaccination information.

6. Search for your vaccine provider from the list and link your account by logging into your patient portal through the CLEAR app. You can also upload a photo of your CDC Vaccine Card. (We found that uploading a photo of your CDC vaccine card is more straightforward sine not all healthcare providers partner with CLEAR.)

7. Once linked or uploaded, follow the instructions to enter the vaccination information from your card.

8. It may take a few hours or a day for CLEAR to verify the uploaded information before issuing you a “green” digital vaccine card (if successful).

9. Return to the CLEAR App. If your vaccine card is ready, the “Digital vaccine card” tile should show a “COVID-19 Vaccine completed >” button. See Figure 2.

10. Click on that button to see your digital COVID-19 vaccine record card with your photo and a QR code.

11. Click on the share button and enter the email address specified by the Event to send an URL of a “plain” CLEAR Health Pass to the event organizer. When the organizer click on the URL, he or she can only see a photo and the expiration date plus a green background indicating it’s “cleared” (no QR code or other detailed info.) That’s it!
