"Sanitary Pass" in France and other European COVID requirements

I know there are a lot of posts about COVID travel requirements but since they seem to change so frequently, I wanted to get feedback about the "Sanitary Pass" for France. The guidance isn't particularly clear. We are all vaccinated and boosted and have the white cards from the CDC. Will those work to get a pass or do we need it in a different format? How do we get it once we arrive? I just want to make sure I understand what is required. Thank you to all of the seasoned travelers who provide guidance on these pages! This will be my first time traveling to Europe and I'm nervous about not getting something right. We will be visiting France, England, Scotland, Germany and Austria over a two-week period in July.

The sanitary pass has been discontinued in France. You don't need anything, except your proof of vaccination to board your plane to go to France.

Wonderful! So does the white CDC card work or is a PDF with a QR code required? I know some countries don't like our white cards.

People wanting to see vaccination proof will have seen a lot of valid CDC cards before yours, any place where Americans have been, so yours won’t be questioned.

We’ve been here 3 weeks and have never once been asked for vaccination card.
Uploaded to our Travel Ready section on United, never asked to show on departure or arrival.
The requirement ended a week after we arrived.

Bring the original.
