An Australian bride-to-be has devised an unconventional way to prevent COVID-19 from ruining her big day — by purposefully attempting to catch it.
A video detailing her preemptive wedding-saving measure currently boasts a whopping 121,000 views on TikTok.
“POV your wedding is in 6 weeks and you still haven’t had COVID,” reads the caption to the clip, which was posted Sunday by user @maddysmart31.
The 15-second video, titled “Catch COVID not feelings,” shows the soon-to-be-hitched embracing multiple men and women — and even swapping drinks — at a Melbourne nightclub in an attempt to contract the virus, which she seems to believe will prevent it from crashing the occasion.
The video was posted right before Victoria, Melbourne’s state, announced that starting Jan. 12, it would be closing all indoor dance floors to everyone, except wedding parties, to stem the Omicron uptick.
Nonetheless, many TikTok commenters praised the future wife’s unorthodox immunization strategy split.
“yasss!! Feb 5th bride and I feel this on so many levels,” said one wedding hopeful, while another wrote, “I feel you sis.”
However, others found the so-called preventive measure a bit hare-brained.
“Sucks to be a healthcare worker watching this,” lamented one detractor.
