FRANKFORT, Ky. (FOX19) - Kentucky will roll out an incentive program for people to get vaccinated, Gov. Andy Beshear said on Tuesday.
The move comes as 2.06 million Kentuckians, or 46 percent of the state’s population, are at least partially vaccinated, according to Kentucky’s vaccination data.
Beshear has previously stated he would consider incentive programs for vaccinations, even saying he would be willing to copy Ohio’s Vax-a-Million lottery as several other states have done.
“Any idea will be considered. We are willing to steal any good idea that other states have had,” the governor said last week.
Ohio saw a bump in vaccinations the week following the announcement of its lottery. According to Ohio Department of Health data, the state saw a 106 percent increase that week from its weekly vaccination average pre-announcement. But the increase didn’t sustain itself; the following week saw just a 48 percent increase, and the most recent ODH data bears out that decline.
The first winner of Ohio’s Vax-a-Million drawing was a Tri-State resident. The second winner, out of a total of five, will be announced on Wednesday.
Beshear on Tuesday did not say whether Kentucky would employ a lottery or some other form of incentive program.
The governor has relied on private businesses to create their own incentives, such as when Racing Louisville FC, a women’s soccer team, offered vaccines at a soccer match in late April.
The Kentucky lottery began offering free coupons for free lottery tickets to adults who get the vaccine in early May.
Meanwhile, Beshear’s statewide goal of 2.5 million vaccinations to drop all pandemic health orders, meant to incentivize vaccinations, proved more stick than carrot. Billed during its unveiling as Kentucky’s “COVID-19 exit strategy,” it seemingly failed to thwart the precipitous decline in vaccinations that gripped the commonwealth and the country through April.
The health orders will be gone June 11, Beshear announced in early May.
That announcement, which ostensibly dispensed with the 2.5 million vaccination goal, came just days after Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine announced Ohio’s health orders would be gone June 2.
Also on Tuesday, Beshear announced that due to increased vaccinations, senior centers will reopen at full capacity on June 11.
Really wondering if they’re lying about uptake stats...
My wife and I have no interest in getting vaccinated. Yes, we live in Kentucky.
I think the virus is real, but the rest of this is nonsense. Too much bullchit has been thrown at the people for me to take ANY of this seriously.
a lottery ticket costs a dollar
a lottery ticket costs a dollar
They say there is no shame in continuing to wear a mask. That may be true, but I see anyone still in a mask (not required to by their employer) as a gullible fool.
But I’ll smile and say I understand that they feel they need it and we all get to make that choice.
When do they get to the jab or a bullet?
With vaccine documents, wife and I booked our 37th cruise in September 2021. It has been 13+ weeks since our 2nd shots of vaccines. Zero problems. I am age 81.
The PCR test does not detect the Covid virus or the illness so we don't know what illnesses the remaining 5% actually died from.
No need for dangerous, toxic Covid-19 shots.
Fauci/CDC/NIH/FDA are weaponized and directed by Bill Gates, China etc. But there are physicians who recognized no treatments were being developed and they jumped in to find and share the truth and treatments that work.
As the truth comes out, they are beginning to lie and say they didn't know the spike proteins in the 'vaccines' are dangerous. The researc claiming the spike proteins in the illness are hazardous is likely just 'cover' for the damage done by the vaccines, because the spike proteins are not the same in both.
Vaccine Expert Warns: “We Made a Big Mistake”

It’s not humanly possible to sort through reams of scientific research data and conflicting expert conclusions, but thankfully there’s another way.
The supposed need for government “incentive programs” slices right through all the heavy jargon, appeals to authority, and clever ads.
A stitch in time saves nine!
I’m pushing #JustSayNo
This rap-vid gives this old-timer some hope that the younger generation might have a chance after all.
I drove blind stinking drunk once in 1972 and ran a stop sign at full speed. No problems. Made it home just fine.
But still... ;)
Both of us only have anecdotal evidence other than what we read or see in the media. We just select different authorities to trust.
I like to say that on the internet, where all positions are free to make their best case, the truth percolates to the top. It’s why I see AGW (global warming) as a total hoax.
And it’s why I consider masks to be so ineffective to be essentially useless. And that is even AFTER major sites try to silence one side.
And neither Al Gore nor that teenaged chick were convincing.

Excellent response.

The vaccine industry is pure evil
The vaccine theory is invalid
They’re getting so desperate now to try to herd the population like cattle to their slaughter that they’ve gone to bribing people
The Democrats have always wanted to force vaccines upon people this is been going on for at least 80 years
They’ve more or less tried to force little school children to get dozens of rounds of vaccines and have destroyed and ruined millions of children as a result
Here is the long terrible history of the evil indutry
Excerpt

1948 Randolph K. Byers and Frederick C. Moll of the Harvard Medical School publish an article describing children who had suffered brain damage after receiving Pertussis vaccine. The findings provided the first clear evidence that the vaccine caused the serious neurological complications in children.
1948 Randolph Byes and Frederick Moll of Harvard Medical School validate that severe neurological disorders follow the administration of DPT vaccine. The research was performed at Children’s Hospital in Boston and published in Pediatrics magazine. Nothing was done by physicians to halt the use of DPT vaccine.
1948 A study on Pertussis vaccine reaction is done by Randolph K. Byers and Frederick C. Moll of the Harvard Medical School. They examine 15 children who had reacted violently within 72 hours of a Pertussis vaccination. All the children were normal before the shot. None had ever had a convulsion before. One of the children became blind, deaf, spastic and helpless after being given the Pertussis shot. Out of the 15 children, 2 died and 9 suffered from damage to their nervous system. Physicians were displeased by these results.
1948 England bans smallpox vaccine.
1948 North Carolina polio cases number 2,498. See 1949.
1948 Louis Sauer makes an interesting observation at an AMA meeting where Pertussis vaccination was discussed. Louis Sauer points out that ‘the neurological damage caused by Pertussis vaccine is the same as the damage caused by Pertussis (whooping cough–Which is logical, because they use the bacteria in the vaccine). According to Sauer, ‘a customary prophylactic dose of Pertussis vaccine seems to illicit a chain of nervous system reactions and in some cases irreversible pathological changes in the brain. These findings resemble those encountered in cases of severe whooping cough (Pertussis).’ In other words, the vaccine is causing the disease condition.
Government thinks we are stupid and we need to be bribed to get jabbed. Government was uninterested early on applying SAFE AND EFFECTIVE remedies to combat COVID that would have cut the deaths in half and there would be no need for the poison jab and natural immunity would take hold much earlier.
They could not offer me enough to take their injection.
Besides with all the lying, I wouldn’t trust them enough to deliver on it.
That was you? We just missed each other.
That was you? We just missed each other.
I was fortunate.
200,000,000 Americans on schedule to be vaccinated by end of July.
If you are educated, that number should mean something of an eye opener. If as many as 50,000 people have very bad effect from vaccine and drop dead or are paralyzed from the vaccine, that means vaccine is 99.9% safe.
When driving blind stinking drunk, your chance of serious accident are higher by orders of magnitude than anything the vaccines have reported.
But statistics can go right over your head unless you have studied it at college level.
