Michigan spent $5M on vaccine lottery, still well shy of 70 percent goal


Michigan is still shy of that mark by more than 500,000 shots. 
Health officials say the sweepstakes capped by a $2 million grand prize that will be announced later this month may have helped Michigan avoid a more precipitous decline in vaccination rates, which have slowed in most states but are climbing in some regions where COVID-19 is once again surging.
Despite continued hesitancy among some residents, more than 167,000 Michiganders have had their first shot since late June, which experts say is no small feat given entrenched positions among some vaccine holdouts.
