Former Congressman John Delaney has proposed giving stimulus checks to individuals who have taken the Covid19 vaccine.
The former Maryland Rep. and former Democrat presidential candidate suggested giving Americans $1,500 stimulus relief in exchanged for getting vaccinated.
“We have to create, in my judgment, an incentive for people to really accelerate their thinking about taking the vaccine,” Delaney told CNBC. “You’re going to benefit anyhow, because we’ll get the country to herd immunity faster, which benefits you. So I think everyone wins.”
