Sultan Bashir insists his immediate family are included. While the daily odds are good, the long odds weigh against them.

Half the country will find it hard to claim prejudice when the ultimate goal will be remaking 50% of the population as women.
The daily lottery number was made to be as high as possible to restore equity as quickly as possible. The ultimate limit was the number of doses that could be effectively delivered in a day.
