You got a pifzer ? Then you can be eligible for lottery in Poland.

[DU18]

Months before we heard a news where to increase the chances of people getting vaccinated they government gave them a chance to win prizes, lotteries and even in some countries you are allowed to travel for free. Yet again the Government of Poland announced quite an unusual prize for people who have gotten pifzer. You are eligible to participate in the lottery plus the prizes are up to 260,000$!!!! Which is a great news. But unfortunately only 35% of the people in Poland are vaccinated yet. Not only that read this :

From 1 July every 500th person to take the dose will receive a cash prize of PLN200, while every 2,000th person will receive PLN500. The Polish Government will be giving away five prizes of PLN50,000 every week for three months, alongside the incentive each month to receive PLN100,000 and a Toyota Corolla for two lucky winners. The final winners will scoop up the PLN1m and a Toyota CH-R each... If you were thinking of moving to Poland, then now’s your chance. And if you need an electric scooter, they’re flogging them too, 720 to be precise.

Now that's a gamble that you gotta try! If you are from Poland then you have to get the shot! I do think this is an interesting gamble for the people there what do you think ? ?

I think the gift giving is a surefire step for Poland to get its citizens to want to vaccinate, in contrast to some countries which are only limited to urging their citizens to vaccinate, and even in my country now has implemented very strict rules and there are also restrictions on activities for the community to prevent the spread of the virus, and in my country there are still many people who are against the government's recommendation to vaccinate so this causes the government a little difficulty.

[qwertyup23]

Saw this quite late and it boggles my mind to think that in half of the world, people would kill for vaccines. In another half, people are getting paid and incentivized to take it.

I'd be taking pfizer anyway if I could access, not to mention getting a lottery! Antivaxxers I don't get also, they live such privileged lives.

That's the sad reality, people want to get their vaccines while the privileged ones resist because they think they're smarter than the doctors and scientists who developed the vaccines. The reason for the rise of anti-vaxxers is the fact that the critical thinking skills of many people all over the world has gone much lower compared to the last century or so. We have gone too soft and dumb. Get your vaccines and get that lottery ticket compensation if there's one in your city or country.

I find it baffling that there are people who refuse to believe the science of vaccine. I mean, science has already explained in detail the mechanism on how vaccines work, yet lots of people are crafting conspiracy theories about it.

Unfortunately, the only way to convince these close-minded people is to provide merits or compensation for people who are already vaccinated. In this way, even if they do not believe in the science of vaccine, they are at least motivated to get vaccinated in lieu of these rewards.

It's part of encouraging people to take this steps, being vaccinated gives the government some breathing if they will managed to let more people from jurisdiction to take it.

It will lessen  chances of spreading to more people, preventions is really a good way to battle this virus, with this promotions coming from Pfizer, they'll be able to reach out more people to gain interest to take part,

Taking the shots and you'll also have that chance to changed your lifestyle if you got lucky and win the jackpot.

what you say is true, if right now the government needs some special tricks to make its people obey the vaccination call like what was done by poland, but the problem now is that some countries are more inclined to apply harsh rules to their citizens if they don't want to do vaccinate and even now my country applies the requirement to include a certificate of having been vaccinated for the processing of important documents and of course what the Polish government has done cannot possibly be applied in a country that prohibits gambling like in my country.

[Silberman]

It is sad but this is the way it is, it was impossible to expect that this vaccine was going to be developed for 5 years before it was released to the population, this is why if some people oppose to get the vaccine I do not criticize them as the risks are real, this is why we hear stories of people dropping dead a few minutes after they got the vaccine as the vaccine has a higher risk than usual, but that being said as soon as I get the opportunity to get the vaccine I will get it.

I have not read news of people dropping dead after they got a vaccine do you have an article for this, this is scary if this true, some people react negatively to a particular vaccine but not to the point that they are dropping dead, and if this is true the percentage is very low based on their study, so far the vaccination is a huge success even if the virus is mutating.

This is the first article that I have found about it but there are many cases like that, now if we compare the number of people dying immediately after receiving the vaccine compared to all the people that are now protected and will resist the coronavirus then I still think that it is worth to take the vaccine as the virus has killed millions of people, however it will be unfair to deny that the vaccine can have very adverse effects on some people and that the risks are higher than the ones we face with other vaccines.

Yes, compared to those that have taken the shot and felt good, there really were those few that didn't have good results as they take the vaccine. It's still not convincing for those that are waiting for the perfect vaccine to come but as long as there's the availability of the vaccine, anyone who's in that place should take it. Poland got this step and their citizens are in a good situation unless there's another situation that their citizens are dealing with just like those countries that got a lot of anti-vax folks.

One of the factors on why people get sick after taking a shot is totally depending on someones health or body condition.Some of my family members had taken a shot of covid vaccine and thats 3 of them.

One had some chills after a day of the vaccine and the other two havent noticed any effects but we know that side effects doesnt really instantly come out specially if severe ones and lets hope
that there would no such instances that might happen but we have seen that there are really people who died because of some side effects.

Hoping that your family members won't experience that many changes in their body as they've become protected with the vaccine. It is important if most of you guys have always been going outside and have to do things on your own.
For the side effects, I do not think that it's all about the side effects. Or let's say that there's a certain thing that it's all about the reaction of the body upon taking the shot but it's not always the case.

They are really making some initiative on making their citizens to take a shot even ending up into these means which i dont see to be a bad idea but wont be surely to be effective.
People know on what are the odds on hitting lottery and that alone would be a solid reason on why people would really be ignoring this stuff but there are governments which
do impose strict rule about vaccination on where they do end up on making it mandatory and would really be having some specific consequences for those who
do ignore nor does choose not to take a shot which i absolutely oppose into this kind of idea which does show desperation.Everybody should decide on their own and not being forced to do so.

what i dont like about this Poland lottery is that they are discriminating other covid vaccines, why only pfizer? am ok with this strategy as other countries or states are also doing some kind of lottery already like in washington state, and ohio . the lottery prizes differ from each state to state but they don't mention which vaccine they used. every country or state has their own strategy on how to entice their constituents to get vaccinated but hopefully they won't be picky what type of vaccine they want to include in the lottery.

All of those who have taken vaccines are eligible for lottery, and it is not just for Pfizer. But Poland is primarily using Pfizer to vaccinate and that may have created some confusion. The largest prize is 1 million zlotys ($273,000). I don't know what prompted this reaction from the government, but the vaccination rates have been quite high in Poland compared to the other countries in the region. Opinion polls indicate that around 70% of the Polish citizens want to get vaccinated (with Pfizer as the main vaccine).

Maybe that is because that country does not have more funds to create a lottery than Poland, so they only suggest their people vaccinate. I think that will not be a problem because that is for people's health, and people need to realize that. The virus is already spread in many places and there are no signs of stopping, so it is better to follow what is suggested to us, although that still does not fully protect our body and health.

In my opinion, it's just a government's way of forcing people to get vaccinated because it's difficult to deal with everyone, especially those who don't want to get vaccinated. As long as the covid-19 virus exists, new variants appear out of nowhere, and it is extremely dangerous to allow this virus to exist in the world.

IMO, the government's idea to encourage people to be vaccinated in exchange for a chance to win money is a good one. Yes, it's still a risk, particularly if you distrust vaccines and are willing to get vaccinated for the sake of winning the money. However, I'm very sure that there are just a few people who don't believe in vaccines because they're afraid of what can happen to their bodies, and that fuds are ubiquitous.

I think there are two things at stake here. As far as I know, treatment in Poland is covered by the state, so certainly a country like Poland would have to spend much more than $ 260k on treatment of people who do not get vaccinated. The second reason is definitely politics, which is showing people how good the government is and how much it cares for its citizens.

actually now what is needed is awareness from the public to carry out vaccines and sometimes negative news about vaccine side effects makes people even more afraid and even refuses vaccination and actually the government must be able to guarantee that the vaccine does not have side effects that can affect our health later, I once asked some of my friends who don't want to be vaccinated and they say that they want to wait for a vaccine that is really good and has no side effects at all and I think their reasoning is very reasonable, because in my country the government uses 7 types of vaccines and of course they have different functions so that people are a little confused about the type of vaccine to be used  .

So i wont be surprised that citizens would really have doubts and also lottery odds isnt really appealing most of the time and isnt worth the risk.

Really mate, you wanna go with this? You want to say that you have seen 3 articles that you didn't even read and you want to go against everyone who are super tired of living in isolation and going outside with just masks with some look of apocalypse going around the world? Alright, I will show you why you should not be someone ANYONE should listen to and why scientists who spent DECADES! trying to learn things like these should be listened instead.

First one is a 13 year old kid that we still do not know if died from vaccination, kid died in his sleep and that's all we know, there wasn't even a side affect impact on him in the first three nights so there is a big chance it was not the vaccination that killed him, plus it is advised not to get the shot before you are 18 years old, since survival rate is already very high for them.

Secondly the guy in Ukraine died four hours later, yet 5 other people that took the same shot had absolutely nothing, and that guy is still NOT KNOW IF HE DIED FROM THE SHOT, so there is no proof of it. There is ZERO PROOF that vaccination kills, if I get the vaccination and then shoot myself with a gun in the head doesn't mean that I died because of the vaccination, people die, and just so happens some of them die after getting the vaccination, doesn't mean the cause is the vaccination, a car could hit them when they walk out of the clinic, doesn't make it vaccinations cause. Calm the f down and get the shot.

Neither have side motives or actually been concern of  their citizens health then its none of our business and as long they do show off some concern about their citizens then that what matter most.

If it does have some political intention mix up then people aren't that blind in towards to that.Thing here is that if people are really that much willing to take that vaccine or not.

Eligible for some lottery is just a bonus because what matter most here is your safety but don't think that these shots are giving 100% protection so you should still be careful.

New vaccines are expected to have side effects and its effects depends on the person injected with. It is hard to guarantee that it won't have side effects that's why the government is giving you choices and aren't forcing you to take but they gave good incentives to promote vaccination just like what the lottery in Poland did. Every vaccine has different efficacy and side effects, so it will be up to us or it is better to ask for a doctor's advice on what vaccine should we take. If I found pfizer to be unreliable, I wouldn't really choose it just to join the lottery.

^ Definitely right, all brand of vaccines has a different side effect and I think the most leading brand is Pfizer-BioNTech or know as in short name Pfizer.
This is the only vaccine that you can apply to even teenagers, it is 12 years old above while other brands are allowed only 18 years old above. The pain is moderate compared to the other brand and the outcome after taking an injection are only fatigue and headache while other brands are more worst just like an allergic reaction and even you will experience convulsion. Nevertheless, it is a good choice brand from Poland and for sure all of them will get vaccinated.

Whether there's a lottery ticket or any sort of giveaway just to get vaccinated, as long as there's already the provision for the vaccine by the government. People must take of that advantage and moment to get the shot as soon as it's available in their category and place.
It's all about health and Poland is just doing its job to maintain its country with a clean and near virus-free environment whether there's a lottery giveaway or not. That is a must in these times but soon, if the covid infection becomes lower and near to being free and eliminated. Everyone on that country can do everything that they want with or without those goodies.

Two years later will be the time for the election so I guess the government wants to show people how they care about their citizens to come back to the government. It is a good idea for them to attract attention from their citizen because their people can know if their government is doing the right thing for them. Yes, the country needs to allocate big money for their people, which is worth doing.

actually now what is needed is awareness from the public to carry out vaccines and sometimes negative news about vaccine side effects makes people even more afraid and even refuses vaccination and actually the government must be able to guarantee that the vaccine does not have side effects that can affect our health later, I once asked some of my friends who don't want to be vaccinated and they say that they want to wait for a vaccine that is really good and has no side effects at all and I think their reasoning is very reasonable, because in my country the government uses 7 types of vaccines and of course they have different functions so that people are a little confused about the type of vaccine to be used  .

People can get aware if they get well-educate and get informs from the right sources and in this matter, they get it from their government so they do not have to afraid because their government will take care of them. Maybe the government can explain the side effect after the vaccine and what they need to do to minimize the effect on their body. If the government can explain with the right, their people will want to vaccinate, and they will not think about the lottery because that will be a side bonus for the people. I am sure that if we have a good immune before or after vaccinated, we will be okay and we will not feel any side effects because the vaccine will be blend with our immune and make a new immunity to our body.

Whether there's a lottery ticket or any sort of giveaway just to get vaccinated, as long as there's already the provision for the vaccine by the government. People must take of that advantage and moment to get the shot as soon as it's available in their category and place.

I am sure if people can take care of themselves better, sooner or later, the virus will end and we will be back to normal life like before. At least, if we are vaccinated, that can reduce the chance of getting infected, although that is not guaranteed. The lottery giveaway is only a bonus for lucky people, so maybe they do not have to think about the prizes.

Governments are also encouraging people to get vaccinated because we cannot really have people in a perpetual lockdown, if the economy collapsed then the pandemic could be the least of our worries so we need to go back to work and get the economy going once again and this is only possible if the majority of the population is vaccinated, it is not going to be easy or cheap but it is something that is necessary to do.
