USA – One lucky woman from the United States met her good fortune when she became a participant in a lottery for vaccinated citizens. Her life was turned upside down when she found out that she had won a million dollars in this unusual lottery created to encourage vaccination and health care.
COVID-19 vaccination has become one of the most discussed topics in recent years. Authorities and public health are actively working to encourage the vaccination process, and one such way has been the lottery for the vaccinated. The event is designed to inspire more people to get vaccinated and promote the overall health of the nation.
A mother of many children won a million dollars in the Vaccinee Lottery. Mom of four children Heidi Russell from Colorado has won a million dollars in a lottery for those vaccinated against COVID-19.
In May, Governor Jared Polis announced a lottery in which five vaccinated residents of the state will be able to win such an amount. The money will come from federal funds allocated to the state to increase immunization coverage.
“This prize will really help raise four children …. But I also hope to help others with this money,” CBS television reported the winner as saying.
Other family members are also counting on the fact that they can usefully spend part of the winnings. Thus, according to Russell, one of her daughters plans to use the money to pay for her college education.
