A LAS VEGAS strip club is trying to get more vaccinated by offering shots with a view.
Visitors to Larry Flynt’s Hustler Club in Nevada will be able to get a booster or vaccine on Tuesday in partnership with Immunize Nevada through its “Boobs for Boosters” popup clinic.

“With the club being conveniently located just off the I-15 near the Las Vegas Strip, we hope to appeal to tourists and locals alike, including the club’s entertainers and staff.”
Anyone who shows up at the strip club can get both first and second doses of either Pfizer and Moderna, or a shot of Johnson and Johnson.
People can also get a booster shot if they have not already gotten one of either Pfizer or Moderna.
Other vaccines like a regular-dose flu vaccine or higher-dose ones for those ages 65 and up will also be available.
But wait, there’s more: those who can show proof of being fully vaccinated and having received a booster will get a $200 gift card for all of GoBest’s venues and dinner for two at one of its restaurants.
The club also did a similar pop-up vaccine clinic in May of this year, which was met with equal appreciation as this one from the health department.
“This is just another way to access our population,” said JoAnn Rupiper, the chief nurse of the Southern Nevada Health District. “It might attract some people who like the novelty of it, I suppose.”
The move seems to be helping encourage people to get their vaccine should they be putting it off.
“I’ve been here so many — I’ve been here a few times. … Maybe 10 times, give or take,” Roberto Montti said, who lives near the strip club.
About 46 percent of the state’s population aged 12 and up has received at least one shot of the vaccine, but health officials are saying its seen a steep dropoff in demand.
The state is turning to popup vaccination clinics to help reach its goal of 75 percent vaccination in the state.
