You still have a chance to win!
Winners will be staggered over a five-week span from July 29 to Aug. 26, Gov. Charlie Baker's administration announced Friday.
A new winner will be drawn each week and announced three days later, with the entry deadline for the drawing one week before the announcement.
The deadline is the day a person becomes fully vaccinated each of the three vaccines takes a different amount of time to become fully effective.
With the delta variant of covid-19 on the rise, there is no better time than right now to get vaccinated, and who knows you might get the wonderful added perk of winning a million dollars.
What would you do if you won a million?
The table below shows when each drawing will occur and how many drawings those participating will qualify for, depending on the day they're fully vaccinated.
