Antonio Brown’s audacity taught us something about vaccination cards

Antonio Brown taught us a few things last week.

First, COVID-19 vaccination cards are nowhere near the foolproof passport we've treated them to be.

Second, if someone is determined to refuse a mandate to get a shot, obtaining some slick documentation to evade it isn’t that hard.

Third — and this was the detail that undercut Brown and two other players in the NFL’s investigation — eliminating loose strings in your story goes a long way toward “misrepresenting” your vaccination status. And finally, aside from cases of egregious forgery, the federal government isn’t kicking in doors over individuals attempting to dupe corporations like the NFL.
