Others Evade, But This Australian Bride Even Tries To Get COVID-19 On Purpose, Why?

JAKARTA - Omicron is again threatening the world. All governments have warned their citizens not to be infected. But that rule does not apply to this Australian bride-to-be who is already planning a wedding day next February.

But brides-to-be in Australia have devised a unique strategy to deal with COVID-19. The way, well, must be infected.

Reporting from the New York Post which was seen by the editor, Monday, January 17, you did not read it wrong.

Citing Australian media outlets, Maddy Smart has posted a video on TikTok of hugging men and women at a Melbourne nightclub in an attempt to catch the virus.

In the 15-second video, Smart is also seen exchanging drinks.

"Your wedding POV is 6 weeks away and you still haven't caught COVID," he said in the accompanying caption, as reported by the New York Post.

An Australian bride-to-be has found an unconventional way to prevent COVID-19 from ruining her big day - by getting it on purpose.

"It's sad to be a health worker watching this," lamented one detractor.
