California spins the wheel in vax prize drawing
California Gov. Gavin Newsom played game show host Friday in a drawing for 15 winners of $50,000 prizes for getting coronavirus vaccinations. The drawing was part of the recently announced $116.5 million Vax for the Win incentive program to encourage more Californians to get inoculated. More than 51% of Californians ages 12 and up were fully vaccinated as of Thursday, and about 70% of residents had received at least one dose.
