“Make vaccination – it is correct for yourself, for your family and for your state. And I am glad to add a little fun of our national vaccination campaign,” the Governor of Michel Luhhan-Grisch declared.
The greatest sole winnings will be $ 5 million. The winner will be announced in August. In addition, in each of the four regions of the state, prizes will be played in the amount of $ 250,000, as well as smaller prizes, including tickets to museums.
This decision was made by the authorities in the hope of popularizing the vaccination from coronavirus. It is noted that at present, at least 55 percent of the state of the state with the right to vaccination received both vaccinations. However, the Ministry of Health wants to increase this indicator to 70 percent.
