Meatpacking company JBS USA has announced a novel sweepstakes to incentivize Americans to get the COVID-19 vaccine by offering a year’s supply of meat. This move aims to address vaccine hesitancy, which continues to hinder efforts to achieve widespread immunity and return to normalcy.
During the pandemic, JBS USA, a subsidiary of Brazilian company JBS SA, faced challenges as thousands of its meatpacking workers contracted COVID-19, leading to temporary plant closures, reduced meat supplies, and increased prices. The sweepstakes is part of the company’s broader effort to protect its workforce and the communities where it operates.
Didn’t you find it bizarre that your doctor (who is supposed to protect you and your wellbeing) would push an experimental vaccine on you, despite all of the reports of injuries and deaths?
This is why.

JBS USA’s CEO, Andre Nogueira, highlighted the company’s progress in vaccinating its employees, with vaccination rates exceeding those in surrounding communities. The sweepstakes extends to residents in rural areas near JBS facilities, aiming to boost public participation in vaccination efforts.
The sweepstakes will award 50 U.S. families with free beef, pork, and chicken for a year, emphasizing the company’s commitment to health and safety. The first round of company-sponsored vaccination clinics commenced in Greeley, Colorado, where JBS operates a large beef plant heavily impacted by the pandemic last year.
“No vaccine should be mandated,” says renowned cardiologist Dr. Peter McCullough — not even the conventional ones.

Nor are they “sufficiently compelling,” remarked Dr. McCullough.

While some may argue that such incentives are unnecessary, given the importance of individual choice in vaccination, innovative approaches are crucial to motivate those who are undecided. President Joe Biden’s goal of having 70% of adults receive at least one COVID-19 vaccine dose by July 4 appears increasingly challenging, making initiatives like this vital.
It is noteworthy that JBS USA’s sweepstakes is just one example of the various incentives worldwide aimed at addressing vaccine hesitancy, including offerings such as live chickens and marijuana. These initiatives reflect the trend of companies and government officials using creative means to reach vaccination targets.
In summary, JBS USA’s vaccine sweepstakes represents a bold strategy to tackle a public health challenge. By providing a tangible reward, the company not only promotes individual well-being but also contributes to the collective effort to end the pandemic.
As the nation continues its journey through these unprecedented times, such initiatives may prove to be a vital element in achieving herd immunity and restoring economic stability.
