State of Nevada Announces Vax Nevada Days with $5 Million in Prizes
Vaccine promotional winnings include a $1 million dollar grand prize and $1.5 million total in College Savings Accounts
LAS VEGAS, NV — As part of a public health initiative called Vax Nevada Days, Nevada Governor Steve Sisolak and the Nevada Department of Health and Human Services — in partnership with Immunize Nevada — will give away $5 million in cash and prizes to nearly 2,000 Nevada residents who have initiated the COVID-19 vaccine process.
“Ensuring that as many eligible Nevadans as possible get the safe and effective COVID-19 vaccine is critical in our mission to protect our communities and our State. It’s how we avoid ever again experiencing what we went through in the last year with COVID-19,” Governor Sisolak said. “While we’re making progress with more than 50% of our eligible residents at least partially vaccinated, we must do more to protect our State. This vaccine incentive promotion is our way to give vaccination efforts an extra boost and encourage all Nevadans to get their shot so our State can recover and build back stronger.”
Every Nevadan 12+ who has had at least one dose of a COVID-19 vaccine will be automatically entered.
Drawings will be held every Thursday, July 8 through August 26, when the grand prize drawing for $1 million will be held.
Additionally, the State is working hard to ensure that members of the military, Veterans and their families within Nevada who received their vaccine through the federal program also have the opportunity to participate in Vax Nevada Days.
International Game Technology (IGT) is donating its time and technology to ensure the drawings are conducted in a fair and legal manner. IGT will assist the program, but will not receive personally-identifiable information. All entries will be anonymous to them.
“We are excited to leverage IGT’s expertise in secure prize draw procedures and project administration to help ensure the integrity of the important Vax Nevada Days health initiative,” said Scott Gunn, IGT Senior Vice President of Corporate Public Affairs. “IGT has a vast history and large employee base in Nevada, and we’re glad to play our part in enabling a successful campaign to protect the health and well-being of its citizens.”
