(WXYZ) — Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer and others announced the final winners of the MI Shot to Win sweepstakes Monday morning.
“The sweepstakes and news coverage helped spur conversations between families and friends about the sweepstakes,” said Protect Michigan Commission Director Kerry Ebersole Singh in a press release. “Several winners who were previously unvaccinated before the sweepstakes said they were inspired to get their vaccinations based on those discussions and the prizes they could win.”
The state noted that Michigan recorded week-to-week increases for first dose vaccinations throughout July during the sweepstakes.
