Lottery winners begin to receive their vaccinations

Officials said more than 226,000 people signed up online and by phone for a chance at one of the roughly 8,000 doses available in this round. The state says anyone who signed up for this week's lottery but didn't get an appointment, will automatically remain on the list, for as long as the pilot program continues.
