Vaccinated Californians could win up to $1.5 million in a lottery Gov. Gavin Newsom announced Thursday, part of a $116.5 million effort to persuade more Golden State residents to get their COVID-19 shots.

Ten Californians who got at least one dose will split a $15 million pot on June 15. Vaccinated Californians will also be automatically entered for chances to win $50,000, with 15 winners drawn June 4 and the rest drawn June 11.

All Californians 12 years or older are eligible, except for those incarcerated as well as some state workers and their families. The money will be put in a savings account for minors until they turn 18. Winners must complete their vaccination to claim the prize.

Undocumented Californians as well as other non-citizens are also eligible as long as they live in the state.

Never before in medicine have I seen a government offer cash prizes in exchange for receiving a vaccination.

Why would a State Government try to coerce your healthcare decisions with cash? https://t.co/mHcscUYaT2— Dr. Simone Gold (@drsimonegold) May 28, 2021

------------------------

CA is launching a $116.5 MILLION GIVEAWAY for vaccinated Californians!

$15 MILLION in cash prizes for 10 winners selected 6/15

$50k for winners on 6/4 & 6/11

Already vaccinated? You’re entered.

Not vaccinated? Next 2 million that get fully vaccinated can ALSO get a $50 card.— Gavin Newsom (@GavinNewsom) May 27, 2021

he California lottery officials and Governor Newsom need to be brought up on charges for running a rigged lottery.

Rigged? You bet. The fix is in. Does anyone believe that the State of California would run the risk of selecting a "winner" who lost their life due to complications from the experimental treatment?

It's also illegal as hell. Minors entered. Government funds used for payouts, etc.

Has anyone noticed that the very worst members of the Empire are pushing the magic vaccines the hardest ?

Does this not give one serious doubts about the efficacy of the vaccines ?

State bribery to undergo a medical procedure. How is this even legal?

Since illegals get a free 'vaccine', $50 and an entry in the lottery, I assume this is to incentivize them while Biden pretends to tell them "Don't Come!"

Trade in your old immune system for our 

NEW! IMPROVED! IMMUNE SYSTEM 3000!
 

We'll GIVE YOU $50! THAT'S RIGHT!

BUT WAIT! THERE'S MORE!

WE'LL ENTER YOUR NAME IN OUR $116 MILLION DOLLAR LOTTERY!

WHERE ELSE ARE YOU GONNA GET A DEAL LIKE THAT?!

The entire government response to covid has been criminal, tip to tail.

This latest nonsense, is discriminatory, uses our tax dollars and is 100% criminal.

And if you let your mind wander on the why’s, this whole thing might be crimes against hummanity.

All these rewards simply for getting a vaccination, lottery tickets, sporting tickets, dinner and so on. When elected officials start attempting to bribe and coerce people into some behavior or activity, my antenna suddenly go up. The only thing that will make politicians ‘give’ something away is if they receive at least ten fold back and remember the only thing politicians really care about is Money & Power. Kinda like Obamacare, there really is a skunk in the woodpile.

Winners must complete their vaccination to claim the prize.

Also offered are 200 consolation prizes which include a frozen whole chicken and 5 cans of spam.

it pays to get a fake vaccination card. Which is likely why they’re doing it. They primarily want to show obedience.

Power and control

Although why on earth they are concerned about what someone they don’t even know exists does with their time and money is beyond me.

I guess it’s the money part.

Even though they don’t know me from Adam, they can extort money out of me at every turn.

"it pays to get a fake vaccination card."

A fake vaccination card doesn't enter you into the lottery. At least not for the California prize money. The only thing you have a chance of winning with a fake vaccination card is 5 years in prison
