The sky-blue cards were on a section of pavement on the east side of the Capitol building, not far from a statue of the American Revolution hero, Col. Thomas Knowlton, in a small Staples box marked, “Lost your card?”

Officer Scott Driscoll, a spokesman for the Capitol police, said just after 6 p.m. Tuesday that his agency turned over the investigation to the Department of Health and Human Services. No one was immediately arrested in connection to the incident.

A person improperly using or creating a fake vaccine card can be charged with a federal misdemeanor for unlawful use of a government seal, an HHS investigator said.

Legitimate vaccination cards, which feature the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s emblem, are given by providers when they administer the vaccine.

Posters surrounding the box of cards pointed to some of the reasons people turned out Tuesday ahead of the state Senate’s vote on a proposal to remove the religious exemption for traditional vaccines for public school children. One read: “Medical Freedom NOT Medical Tyranny” Another: “Your opinion is not my medical mandate.”

At least for a period of time in the late afternoon, no person was holding or actively distributing the cards but some participants at the rally picked up cads.
