Newsom draws first lottery winners in effort to boost California COVID-19 vaccinations

SACRAMENTO — Gov. Gavin Newsom stood on a set designed to look like a game show on Friday and drew winners of the first cash prizes in California’s COVID-19 vaccine lottery, part of an effort to boost immunizations that also gives the governor a chance to give away $116.5 million to potential voters before the recall election. “Getting from 30 to 40% of people vaccinated, that’s an easy 10%. Moving from 70% of adults to 75% and beyond, that’s stubborn. That’s difficult work,” Newsom said of the state’s vaccination rate. “We are mindful: Good enough never is, and we’ve got a lot of work to do, and that’s really the spirit that brings us here today and the spirit of the hard work that’s being done every single day all throughout the state of California to get out on the streets, boots on the ground and knock on doors and reach people where they are.” The event was the latest in a series of feel-good announcements from Newsom, whose chances of surviving the recall are tied to the state’s recovery from the pandemic and how voters feel about his leadership when they head to the ballot box. The governor’s “California Comeback Plan” has been buoyed by record tax revenues and the ability to hand out $8 billion in stimulus checks to struggling Californians. The state’s flush coffers have also allowed Newsom to craft a proposed budget that caters to many of the requests from labor unions and interest groups.

Been vaccinated? California wants to give you a dream vacation

Gov. Gavin Newsom on Monday announced six dream vacation packages as part of the state’s Vax for the Win incentive program in an effort to keep building momentum for vaccination efforts.

Californians 18 and older who have received at least one dose of the COVID-19 vaccine will have a chance to win one of six getaways in the Golden State during a drawing July 1. Eligible Californians are automatically entered in the lottery.

Among the destinations are seeing the Giants play in San Francisco, enjoying a spa in Palm Springs, visiting Disneyland in Anaheim, enjoying floor seats at a Lakers game in Los Angeles and learning how to surf in San Diego.

Packages include hotels, food and entertainment for up to four people. Winners will also receive $2,000 for expenses.

The latest incentives are part of what appears to be the largest inoculation incentive in the nation: the chance for 10 residents to win $1.5 million apiece as well as 30 additional awards of $50,000 each. The $50,000 drawings have already been held; the $1.5-million drawings will take place Tuesday.

Yup, "January" is definitely the time where they say: "Don't call us, we'll call you".. ???:

Quote
A white millionaire Canadian couple who took a private jet to get COVID-19 vaccines meant for indigenous people were only fined $1,900

Rodney and Ekaterina Baker flew to a small Yukon territory community in January to get vaccinated. The couple put locals - including many First Nation members - at risk by not quarantining. They pleaded guilty to breaking public-health rules and were fined US$1,900.

"$1,900" is nothing to them...sad but true...
