Wealthy People Are Flying To US To Get A Dose Of COVID-19 Vaccine

We had never thought that this day would come. Believe it or not, a travel company in Mumbai has come up with something called “Vaccine tourism.” With this, customers who want to get a dose of the COVID-19 vaccine will have to pay Rs 1.75 lakh for a four-day trip to the US.

A teaser message of the company read “Be among the first to get Corona vaccine.” And this message has become viral on WhatsApp recently.

According to the company, as soon as the COVID-19 vaccine from Pfizer is officially approved to be sold in the US (December 11), a few VVIP clients will be the first to receive the service.

The cost includes a return ticket from Mumbai to New York, a four-day-and-three-night stay with breakfast, and one dose of the COVID-19 vaccine. When trying to contact the number in the message, it was busy most of the time.

The message also states that the vaccine might be offered to healthcare workers, people suffering from lifestyle conditions, people over 65, etc before it would be available commercially in hospitals.

The message continues saying that the company doesn’t procure or hold any vaccine. Its service will be in line with US laws. Customers who are interested in this service won’t have to make a deposit. All they need to do is to register their name, age, email, any physical complication. They also need to send their passport copy. Once the company gets the official permissions from the US health department, the process will continue.
