I suspect a photocopy of a CDC card should be satisfactory to most, if not all, establishments. A friend of mine who was vaccinated in the US showed something on his phone and it was fine, and I've had no problems with a printout of my Alberta provincial health records. A friend from Ontario showed something on his phone.
Respectfully, I would tend to disagree. I don’t think a photocopy is “official” proof. It may well be fine but it also may not be depending on who is doing the checking. It isn’t something I would want to count on when just carrying the actual card is a sure thing and just as easy.
