NY Gov. Signs Law Punishing Forgery Of Vaccine Cards


New York Gov. Kathy Hochul (D), signed into Law a Bill that makes Forgery of COVID-19 Vaccination Cards Punishable by up to One year of Imprisonment or Three years of Probation.

The “Truth in Vaccination” Law renders Faking of Vaccination Cards a Class D Felony, and Tampering with Computer Records containing Vaccination Data, a Class E Felony, which is Punishable by up to Four years in Prison.

“These new laws will help us improve our response to the pandemic now, crack down on fraudulent use of vaccination records, and help us better understand the areas of improvement we need to make to our health care system so we can be even more prepared down the road,” Hochul said in Statement.

New Yorkers are currently required to present Proof of Vaccination, before being allowed into Indoor Public Settings, such as: Gyms, Restaurants, and Theater performances.

Hochul announced Dec. 10 her Decision to Order All, Indoor Public places in New York to either get Proof of Vaccination from Staff and Customers, or require them to wear a Mask.

The Mandate began Dec. 13 and was set to Expire Jan. 15, at which point it could be Extended.
