Every state in the US is very determined to reach herd immunity for their population for the COVID-19 vaccination. And this means that 70% of the total eligible population should be immune to the disease or get vaccinated. In Colorado, the immunity target is stretched to 80% despite challenges.
This campaign is in response to the hospitalization cases wherein 95.7% of hospitalized COVID-19 positive patients were among the unvaccinated population.
The state of Colorado launched campaigns to boost support and encourage individuals to participate in the vaccination program. Among the campaigns was the Shot for Scholarship, an initiative of the Colorado Community College System.
Twenty five thousand students who get vaccinated will receive the scholarship. The campaign is in partnership with Amazon, giving out 67 scholarships, including five $1,000 scholarships and two $5,000 scholarships.
Another campaign highlight is the Colorado Comeback Cash Gift Giveaway. What is this all about, and how to avail yourself of this campaign?
