White House, dating apps team up to add VAX sticker on profiles
Dating apps will launch various incentives over the next several weeks
The largest dating apps in America are teaming up to encourage Americans to get vaccinated.
The move is to support President Biden's goal of getting 70% of adults at least one coronavirus vaccine shot by July 4.
These companies join organizations across the country that have stepped up by offering incentives and information to help Americans get vaccinated.
Getting vaccinated has been shown to help people in the romance department. Those vaccinated are getting 14% more matches than those who aren't, according to research from OKCupid.
