In the event of an adverse reaction to the vaccine, if a real vaccine and not a placebo is administered, hope the package involves rest of the formalities as well.

While medical tourism is a massive industry, I seriously doubt this vaccine-tourism will catch on!

Russia Vaccine Tourism - RIP

Also Hotels offering COVID19 Vaccination packages shall face strict legal action. Such activities are in contravention to rules under the Nat’l COVID vaccination program and must cease immediately.

Please don't fall into such traps.

Re: Vaccine tourism! Agencies offer trips to Russia for vaccination

This is bizarre! here in Pune MH people are suffering to get day to day medications and vaccination is like winning KBC fastest fingers first (Bots and all working against you). When people are so worried about getting vaccinated hotels offering such avenues are just making mockery of our health system giving preference to wealthy.

In my opinion in case of such pandemic there should be strict regulations in terms of cap of vaccine costs and the mode of such vaccination.

Note: I got myself vaccinated @ govt PHU (Cowin) and My Wife (Pvt Clinic - Paid).

If you can, pay the capped price but don't encourage such vaccine tourism.

Your image does not mention private companies holding vaccination drives for their employees in office. Does that come under "Private vaccination centre run by private hospital"

I am guessing the hotel also will tie up with some hospital and make this a "Private camp organised be a private hospital" I've also heard of housing societies being able to organise camps like this.

The second line of point 3 covers this. My employer (a large shipping company) has tied up with some private hospital/clinic chain to conduct vaccination drives in various cities with a significant number of seafarers.

Re: Vaccine tourism! Agencies offer trips to Russia for vaccination

My employer is also arranging vaccination camps for employees and their families at the office campus. Our housing society already had a few camps from govt health center and are planning for a private one now. I think the hotel stay+ vaccination package may still be possible and I'm sure they will come with some creative ways.
