If the pukes think it will be free forever they will keep up the stupidity.
Maybe after that date charge 1000 dollars for each shot?
That will get many of the pricks pricked.

An encouraging stick combined with a cash carrot might work. We have to get as many people as possible vaccinated as quickly as possible. Children under 16 may be able to be vaccinated by this summer or fall.

what will be effective is mandates on school attendance, on public transportation especially airplanes, major corporations requiring vaccinations for office workers, etc.

Only exemption I would give would be those who cannot take the vaccine for documented health reasons, or those who were vaccinated and still contract the virus.

Keep it free, and make sure to do outreach that brings the vaccine to them.

And quite frankly, I say let them get sick.
Seen a few posts on facebook where right wingers state that their employer can't force them to get the shot. I usually respond with, that may be true. But your employer isn't required to keep you employed if you refuse it....then you hear the record scratch.

(6,805 posts)Cutoff date 1: you get a $300 stimulus incentive if you've had your vaccine completed.
Cutoff Date 2: you get a $150 stimulus incentive if you've completed the vaccine.
Cutoff Date 3: No stimulus. You are part of the problem, not a part of the solution.

My brother is finally getting his first shot Friday. He's had it twice, is over the age of 50 and has an autoimmune issue.
He's in a small town outside of Rochester NY and JUST got his chance to make an appointment on Monday.
Nope - the rich arrogant white male Republicans can just go without.
Vulnerable populations first, them last.
