One interesting suggestion floating around:

Pay individuals $1500 to get the sequence of shots for the vaccine.

It would develop herd immunity, provide broad based fiscal stimulus, and arguably benefit consumer confidence in a big way (because most people can't imagine leaving $1,500 on the table..the default assumption would be most people did it, if only for the check).



(The cynic take: All the unwashed masses get to take a vaccine that may be risky due to a rush job (no longitudinal studies), and people with means don't get the shots because $1500 isn't worth the risk...the plebs will create herd immunity).
