“We’re doing everything we can to incent people to get vaccinated now that we’re running into a little bit of lethargy, or a little bit of hesitancy,” he said Monday.
Lamont announced hundreds of members of the Connecticut Restaurant Association will be offering free drinks in the second half of May to any customer who shows a vaccination card.
