When it comes to getting more COVID shots in arms, it appears state incentives are paying off. Quite literally.
In Maryland and Detroit, people can get money for getting the shot or driving someone to get a shot.
"A lot of people are still scared to take it so maybe this will help. Some people may want to go do it just because of that," Dorinda Jones, a resident of who got the vaccine, said.
But since vaccination rates continue to decline, places like Washington, D.C. and New Jersey are finding other creative ways to incentivize vaccinations.
