PHILADELPHIA - New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy said it's possible that the state could begin incentivizing COVID-19 vaccines in order to reach it's goal.
In an interview with FOX 29 Philadelphia's affiliate, FOX 5 NY, Gov. Murphy was asked if he would consider jumping on board with other governors who have begun giving incentives for vaccines.
"We might, I think all things are on the table frankly," Gov. Murphy said. "We have to get to our objective, which is 70% of the adult population by the end of June."
He did clarify that there is an equity issue in terms of getting the vaccine to communities that are minorities, homebound individuals, and otherwise hard to reach individuals.
