“This pandemic isn’t over, and there are many, many people who have not been vaccinated yet,” the governor said today. “I talked a little bit about the fact that more than two-thirds of people in Illinois have been vaccinated, but that leaves a third and we are not at herd immunity, where we need to get to. So we’re doing everything at the state level to try to incentivize people to go get vaccinated. Many companies have offered incentives to people, to get them vaccinated. People are beginning to take us up on those. We have, as you know, tickets — free tickets, for people who want to go to Six Flags Great America. We have now a beer and a shot or a shot and a shot for the rest of us and lots of other incentives coming, including potentially a vaccine lottery.”
