Vaccine lotteries did not help increase rates of shots: StudySome state-run vaccine lotteries did not help increase COVID-19 immunization rates, a new study suggests. The trend was similar among U.S. states without lotteries, which experienced a decline in rates nearly mirroring those seen in the lottery states. Because researchers only looked at 15 states with lotteries, small increases in vaccination rates may not have been detected. “This study did not find evidence that vaccine lottery incentive programs in the U.S. were associated with significantly increased rates of COVID-19 vaccinations,” the researchers wrote.
