(CNN) -- Nearly 66 million people in the United States who are eligible still have not gotten vaccinated against Covid-19, no matter how much danger that puts them in and no matter how many incentives or mandates have been thrown at them.
States and public health officials have tried all sorts of novel ideas. They've offered donuts, beer and even cold hard cash to entice people to get the vaccine.
At least one tactic, lotteries, did not seem to do the trick, according to a new study published Friday.
The study, published in JAMA Health Forum, looked at vaccination records in 19 states that entered people into a cash drawing after they got vaccinated between the end of April and the beginning of July.
The University of Colorado Denver researchers found no statistically significant association between the lotteries and the vaccination rates. There was "zero difference" in vaccination rates in states that held lotteries compared to those that didn't.
In fact, after looking at the states collectively, rather than looking at how each state that offered a lottery did, the number of people initiating their vaccination process per 1,000 population declined. The number of people getting their second dose stayed the same.

Will never get the shot yet I don’t feel myself in any danger. Putting that needle in my arm is the danger.
CNN. 🙄
Lotteries only showed the contempt that our rulers have for us. We need push these snakes out.
Right on. I won’t get it, because it’s evil, and because I have natural immunity now, which the “vaccine” (gene therapy) CANNOT POSSIBLY CONFER because it contains no live or killed virus, and is therefore NOT a vaccine.
The vax itself is a ‘lottery’ of sorts................... Kinda like Russian Roulette with an automatic....................
I think all governments are lying about the number of vaccinated to trick people into getting tagged
Duh. Anybody dumb enough to play the lottery was already vaccinated.
Good point!
