Shot and a beer: Erie County partners with breweries for pop-up vaccine clinics

As demand for the Covid-19 vaccine continues to fall, the county is taking a new approach.

It’s offering free beer.

It’s not quite a government handout. Local breweries are partnering with the county Health Department to host pop-up vaccination clinics next to their taprooms.

Get a shot – the Moderna kind, not the alcoholic kind – and get a free drink on the house.

Actually, it’s two free drinks since people would be receiving the Moderna vaccine, which requires the inoculated to return for a second dose four weeks later in order to be fully protected.

The county’s new “Shot and Chaser” program is the latest sign of how the vaccine script has been flipped in a few short weeks, from not having enough vaccine to meet demand to now actively shopping the vaccine to breweries, schools and churches in an urgent effort to get more people vaccinated against the virus.

“Here’s a good incentive,” Erie County Executive Mark Poloncarz said Tuesday during his weekly briefing. “If this doesn’t work, I don’t know what will.”

  1. No thank you!!!
    Need more than just a free beer!
    I’ll take my chances and not get the death shot!
    I have recently lost two relatives soon after getting the shot.
    Still labeled as experimental by the CDC.
    Many doctors and scientists have spoken out about it, but their voices are being silenced by
    the corporate media and government.

  2. Will not get this vaccine. These business’s might be getting paid by the government to hold these drive up vaccination sites. To many places having it now.

  3. Hey, I can also get blood clots and an early onset of Alzheimer’s as a bonus, too! I’ll be right over, hold your breath!
