To encourage people to get vaccinated against COVID-19, officials in Washington are giving young people expensive gifts. If you live in Washington DC and haven’t taken your first dose of the COVID-19 vaccine, it’s time to get your first jab. The Mayor of Washington, Mayor Muriel Bowser, announced that young people would get free Apple AirPods with the first dose of the COVID-19 vaccine. If they’re lucky, they could get $25,000 or an iPad after receiving their first dose.
Apple Airpods Given to Students
According to a report in The Hill, Mayor Muriel Bowser announced that those who take their first dose would be rewarded with Apple AirPods, gift cards and scholarships. In a tweet, Bowser said, “Starting at 10 am today, DC youth (12-17) who get vaccinated at Brookland MS, Sosa MS, and Johnson MS will receive their first shot with AirPods, a scholarship of Rs 25,000 or more. iPad or headphones can be found.
In such a situation, if you are a student, then you will be eligible for the award only if you have taken the first dose of COVID 19. At the same time, you will also have to take your parents along with you. Apart from this, to receive the gift, you will need to have your school ID, DC One card, Kids ride free card, report card or proof of enrollment. Would you please tell that only one child of the parents will get this gift who have taken their first vaccine?
Getting vaccinated against COVID-19 is the only way you can slow the spread of the coronavirus. Vaccines reduce the severity of illness. However, none of the vaccine manufacturers has claimed that the vaccinated person will not be infected. People can still catch the virus, but it will not be as severe, and the need for hospitalisation will be reduced.
