Last Wednesday, I was about to send a player home due to not showing me her vaccination card, but she looked through her pocketbook more thoroughly and found it! For the health of all of us, we are only providing bridge to fully vaccinated players. To be fully vaccinated, you must have received vaccination shots and waited two weeks after the last shot.
