S’porean Thanks Healthcare Worker With Snacks After Getting 2nd Vaccine Dose

Healthcare Worker Receives Snacks As Token Of Appreciation From Patient

Being in the healthcare industry is a selfless career choice, especially during the Covid-19 pandemic. While there have been instances where healthcare frontliners are shunned by the public in Singapore, there have also been multiple acts of kindness.

Another act of kindness was captured and posted by 18-year-old TikTok user Luqman (@fatwabro) on Sunday (11 Jul).

Wanting to thank the frontliners working tirelessly to vaccinate the population, he got some sweets for the healthcare worker giving him the jab.

As shown in the video, Luqman decided to buy some snacks for the healthcare worker who would be giving him his 2nd dose of Covid-19 vaccination.

Luqman told MS News that he wanted to do something different from other TikTokers, and was inspired by a generous YouTuber called MrBeast.

He shared that he was feeling shy, but that shyness seemed worth overcoming in the name of giving back.

Then he got his vaccine as per normal, albeit while filming the process.

The worker even asked if the video was clear during the process, which Luqman thought was really sweet.

After receiving his vaccination, Luqman then proceeded to hand the snacks to the healthcare worker.

He told the worker that “you are doing your best to help Singapore, here you go.”

Small gestures for our healthcare frontliners

We have been privileged enough that our healthcare professionals are tirelessly working around the clock to provide the best medical service for those in need.

Since many of us have yet to receive our 1st or 2nd dose of vaccination, why not take this opportunity to thank our healthcare workers.

Even though this is just a simple gesture, it is heartening to see such a scene and healthcare workers would probably appreciate it.

After all, these small acts of kindness can be the ones that help motivate them to keep going.
