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?

In the country where I live in, there are still a handful of people who think that getting vaccinated makes you more sick. The fact that the governor had to organize and to create a fund where only vaccinated people are eligible to participate is really sad considering that this is the only way in order to reach herd immunity.
From reading the comments, I noticed that there has been a declared winner. I do hope that whether or not he believes in the power of vaccine, this would affect people and convince them to get vaccinated soon in the future.
