$100 to be vaccinated

[IT Minion]

I think paying people plays in to the hands of the anti vaxxers. Eventually the anti-vaxxers will get their antibodies by catching Covid.

It's borderline in my eyes.

In years gone by some NHS trusts bribed their staff to have the Flu vaccine by offering an extra day off. They ran the numbers and worked out it'd save them lost working days overall.

Rewards for vaccination can be a good thing.

Different setting though. In a way we've all been incentivised if we want to travel, but selective payments means when Booster 4 is needed, some people will think, hang on... I'll hold out for the $100 - I can think of $20bn worth of better public spend.

Really

Yes. Idiot right wing red states are by far the largest abstainers for the jab. FACT.

America has been offering incentives for many months

the country is full of idiot anti vaxxers….Trump supporters mostly.

The idiots are not limited to the US, we have a good few nutters here too.

I agree, I’m uneasy about bribes for that reason

Me too, best way is just to restrict their usual freedom.

Or inject them with Covid….speed up darwinism.

if anti vaxxers got ill, maybe they would stop whining

I think it’s a great idea. As I have stocks in biontec.

As if NO anti-vaxxers have had covid

As if NO anti-vaxxers have had covid

And as if none of them had died from COVID... (and presumably passed it on to others)

Who were already jabbed but still died.

That doesn't change the facts - you are less likely to be hospitalised, less likely to end up in an ITU and less likely to die from COVID if you have been fully vaccinated, than if you have had no innoculations at all

Please stop trying to teach these idiots common sense, numbers and simple stats go completely over their heads. If they understood the real and genuine facts, they would have had their jabs and not be fighting against it.

Price has nearly halved since August, should perhaps cash in now.

Did you complain about the 'bribes' paid to blood donors which led to the blood contamination scandal?

That was supposed to be safe, wasn't it?
