Ohio Governor Mike DeWine answers questions from the media while accompanied by First Lady Fran DeWine during a visit to the Columbus COVID-19 mass vaccination site at the Ohio State University's Schottenstein Center on Monday, April 5, 2021.
While Maine is offering an LL Bean gift card and West Virginia is dangling the promise of a $100 savings bond, Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine is going big – very big – in the vaccination incentive game.
DeWine's Ohio Vax-a-Million promises $1 million prizes to five lucky Ohioans and full-ride college scholarships to five lucky Ohio teens. The hitch: winners must be vaccinated against COVID-19 before the drawing. The goal is to push people to get the shot.
