Get Your Digital Vax Card Here: MA Releases New Online Tool
Massachusetts still does not mandate a vaccine, though a handful of cities are requiring proof of vaccination in many instances.

Gov. Charlie Baker's administration on Monday unveiled an online system that produces a copy of COVID-19 vaccination cards.
Residents can go to MyVaxRecords.Mass.Gov and enter their basic information to be sent a link to what is essentially a digital vaccination card. It comes with a QR code that can act as vaccination verification.
The record of vaccination shows some personal information, like the name, birthday, which vaccination was administered and when.
