San Diego (CNS)-San Diego County has reported 108 new cases of COVID-19 as public health officials remind the public to continue to take precautions to avoid acquiring and spreading COVID-19 this holiday weekend.

Although the number of local COVID-19 cases has decreased significantly in recent weeks, the area has not yet vaccinated enough San Diegans for cattle in the area.

The pandemic is not over yet. We must continue to take precautions to protect San Diegans who cannot or will not be vaccinated,” said Dr. Wilma Wooten, the county public health officer. “People who have not been vaccinated should wear masks, keep their distance, and avoid large gatherings. “

San Diango people who have been vaccinated against the virus will be able to participate in the state’s lottery, with a prize of 116.5 million US dollars. The state will include all the names in the San Diego Immunization Registry in its drawings.

If the 2 million unvaccinated Californians are vaccinated before June 15th, they are eligible for a $50 gift card. When the vaccine is fully vaccinated, a $100 million gift card will be distributed.

On June 4th and June 11th, the names of the fully vaccinated people will be entered into the lottery. Fifteen people will each win $50,000 on each date.

On June 15, New York State will attract 10 winners, each of whom will receive $1.5 million, for a total of $15 million.
