Getting a vaccine against coronavirus is very important. To get more people vaccinated governments across the world have several offers. Initially, vaccine takers only got a sticker on Snapchat and Instagram. But now, the incentives range from stadium tours, free food, iPhones, and even million-dollar apartments. Here are some interesting COVID-19 vaccine incentives you should know about.
Win a Telsa or even an apartment as COVID-19 vaccine incentives in Hong Kong

Cash incentives in Serbia
Serbia has a surplus of vaccines but is running low on the number of people who are willing to take the vaccine. Aleksandar Vučić, the president of Serbia announced that the country’s government would pay cash to people who were willing to get vaccinated. This incentive was a result of a dip in the number of signups for vaccination. So far, Serbia has vaccinated a total of 1.3 million i.e., 18 percent of its seven million population.
Offers in the United States for getting the shot
Several US states have come up with various incentives to increase the vaccination drive. New York has a ‘Vax and Scratch’ program that gives people a lottery ticket that retails for $20. “We’re doing everything we can to make getting a vaccine as quick and easy as possible, but as vaccination rates slow across the state, we’re going to have to get creative to put even more shots in arms,” said Andrew Cuomo, the governor of New York.
Ohio has a ‘vax a Million’ outreach program in place. Moreover, the state is offering 12 to 17-year-old vaccine takers a 20 percent chance of winning a four-year full-ride college scholarship at any State university in Ohio.
