In an attempt to increase the number of people getting vaccinated all kind of incentives are being given in the US, one of the most interesting is that those that get at least the first dose of the vaccine at Ohio will have a chance to win one million dollars, apparently there will five be prizes so a total five million dollars will be given for those that are willing to take the vaccine, and for those that are below the age of 18 there will be full scholarships being offered as well.
What do you think of this? Do you agree with what the governor of Ohio is doing or are you against it?

It is well known that especially poorer people are not so interested in vaccination. That is why $10k would be a big profit for them. So I would rather give away 100 times $10k with a higher probability to win than one time $1 million.
