Thanks! Fake news: One third of the 113k doses was to newly eligible minors aged 12-15 and the remaining 76k represents an insignificant ~3% increase over prior vaccination rate.
The brilliance of the Ohio lottery was that it incentivized future vaccinations without discriminating against people who were already vaccinated.
Yup, excellent implementation, and a cost of less than $1 per person. People are excited for it.Federal government should copy it.
At that cost, Pfizer should be doing it themselves...
Quotes in a signature is annoying, as it comes across as an independent post.
It’s bad optics for Pfizer/Moderna to openly pay or otherwise incentivize people to get vaccinated.
