Video above: Scientist hopes to aid in vaccine hesitancy
McDonald's is partnering with the White House to promote vaccination information on its coffee cups as hesitancy grows about taking the potentially life-saving shot.
Advertisement Beginning in July, customers in the United States will see redesigned McCafe cups and delivery seal stickers that features "We Can Do This," a slogan created by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services to promote vaccine confidence. It also includes a website address (vaccines.gov) that directs people to nearby appointments and safety information.
The promotion will last several weeks and the slogan will be printed on roughly 50 million cups.
Average number of COVID-19 vaccines administered dipped below 2 million per day Prior to that, McDonald's said its billboard in New York's Times Square location will also display vaccine information beginning in mid-May.
"We all want to protect ourselves and our loved ones and be together with our communities again," said Genna Gent, McDonald's USA vice president for global public policy and government relations, in a statement. "McDonald's is excited to be doing our part for the people we serve, providing them with simple information that can help keep them safe."
Xavier Becerra, the Health and Human Services secretary, said in a statement that the public-private partnership will "be able to get trusted information about vaccines when they grab a cup of coffee or order a meal."
"This effort will help more people make informed decisions about their health and learn about steps they can take to protect themselves and their communities," he added.
COVID-19 vaccineMyths about the COVID-19 vaccine explained McDonald's wasn't paid by the government for this promotion, according to a person familiar with the campaign.
The "We Can Do This" campaign was announced in March and aimed at encouraging hesitant Americans to get immunized. In a Kaiser Family Foundation survey, 47% of people who say they want to "wait and see" before being vaccinated said paid time off to get it would make them more likely to do so, and 39% said a financial incentive of $200 from their employer would work.
The U.S. vaccination rate has declined from its peak last month, pushing officials to offer new incentives to further encourage the wary, hesitant and inaccessible to get vaccinated. So far, more than 150 million people in the U.S. have received at least one dose of the vaccine.
“The promotion will last several weeks and the slogan will be printed on roughly 50 million cups.”
Which will go straight to the Landfill after use...
What an exercise in futility! NOBODY, other than those in danger from this flu NEEDS this vaccine! Our state is now opening it up to teens and younger kids which is insanity; they can’t GIVE the stuff away!
McDonalds are the last to talk about ‘hesitancy’ They still refuse to open their dining rooms. What are they waiting for?
“You Deserve A Jab Today.”
Ah go stick yourself
My wife’s best friend is in a hospital, slowly dying of Covid-19 which she contracted just after getting her second shot.
McDonald’s needs to stick to making cheap food and forget about goading people into something potentially lethal.
Sell hamburgers. Stop trying to change the world.
McDonald’s food is trash. I can’t boycott them since I haven’t bought from them for years.
“They still refuse to open their dining rooms.”
Men over age 70 who like cheap coffee hardest hit.
2.6 million people in Wisconsin have already gotten a COVID-19 vaccine. 60% of the adult population. 82% of people over 65.
Beware of Greeks bearing gifts; how to detect a trap 101.

Another korporation doing the bidding of the National Socialists (Nazis). "Wilkum to McDonald's. Show your papers."
Thanks. I’ve also just come up with the new Biden Administration slogan:

👍
Injured by the vaccine? Sue McDonalds since they are pushing it.
I wonder how much Deep State paid them to do it...
My body my choice
In my area you can at least walk into most McDonald’s in order, but it’s about a 50-50 shot of water you can actually eat in the dining room. Chick-fil-A still won’t even let you walk inside to place an order you have to sit in The drive-through line or order on the app and pick it up just inside a side entrance.
