MN offers $100 rewards to unvaccinated who get shots

By Pat Sweeney Jul 29, 2021 | 5:24 PM

Gov. Tim Walz says Minnesota will join in the Biden administration’s plan to provide $100 incentives to residents who get COVID-19 vaccinations by mid-August. President Joe Biden announced the rewards as part of sweeping new pandemic requirements for millions of federal workers as he denounced an “American tragedy” of rising-yet-preventable deaths among unvaccinated people. Starting Friday, unvaccinated Minnesotans 12 and older who get their first shot by Aug. 15 will get a $100 Visa gift card to spend however they choose. All Minnesotans qualify for free COVID-19 shots through health care providers, pharmacies and other sources.
