Vouchers for vaccination: Large rush for vaccination campaign in Nuremberg

There will be a reward for vaccinating against Corona on Saturday in Nuremberg.

There, everyone who wants to be vaccinated receives three vouchers for the “NürnBärLand”.

Nuremberg - In other countries it is already common practice: Incentives to get vaccinated.

In New York, those willing to vaccinate were even given a joint as a reward.

Of course, there is no such thing in Nuremberg on Saturday.

Nevertheless, at a vaccination campaign in front of the “NürnBärLand”, a gift was waved after receiving a syringe.
