A study published in the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) concluded that state-sponsored vaccine lotteries, such as Ohio's "Vax-a-Million," were completely ineffective at increasing vaccination rates. The segment also mocks New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio's attempt to use free food as an incentive.

U.S. states including Ohio, Maryland, and Colorado have launched multi-million dollar lotteries to incentivize COVID-19 vaccinations using federal grant money. While Ohio Governor Mike DeWine claimed the "Vax-a-Million" program was a success, data analysis suggests the spike in vaccinations was primarily driven by the expansion of eligibility to children rather than the lottery itself. Other incentives include $100 savings bonds in West Virginia and reduced community service hours for defendants in Georgia.

Ohio Governor Mike Dewine launched the "Vax-a-Million" program, using federal COVID relief funds to offer five $1 million prizes to vaccinated residents. While some media outlets praised the surge in vaccination rates following the announcement, critics view the lottery as a sign of economic desperation among the state's population.
