I reckon Albo’s on the right track. The opposition leader wants to pay $300 to every Australian who is fully vaccinated by December 1.
The Grattan Institute is on a similar theme. It has proposed a $10 million per week lottery, paying out ten $1 million prizes per week from Melbourne Cup day. One vaccination gets you get one ticket. Two gets you two tickets.
The costs are tiny compared to what’s at stake. Treasury modelling released on Tuesday puts the cost of Australia-wide lockdown at $3.2 billion per week.
Paying people to get vaccinated fits the government’s criteria of a response that’s “temporary, targeted and proportionate”.
Paying Australians $300 to get vaccinated would be value for money
