Thuy Tien cancels trip to South America due to COVID-19 infection
VOV.VN - A trip to South America by Nguyen Thuc Thuy Tien, Miss Grand International 2021, has been rescheduled after she recently tested positive for the SARS-CoV-2 virus, announced the event’s organisers on the beauty pageant’s fan page on March 8.
“New schedule will be announced soon. Fortunately, she's in great spirit and has mild symptoms,” the organisers wrote on the fan page.
Thuy Tien had returned to Thailand on March 7 ahead of her mission to South American countries, including Peru, Colombia, and Ecuador.
She is due to participate in the Miss Grand Thailand 2022 pageant in Thailand in April before continuing her mission in Spain in May.
The Ho Chi Minh City native was crowned Miss Grand International 2021 in the grand final held in Thailand in December, 2021.
Tien received a warm welcome upon her return to Vietnam. Upon arrival, she gave long-term sponsorship to 15 orphans who lost their parents due to COVID-19 and provided assistance to disadvantaged women.
She also helped build a playground at a kindergarten in a northern mountainous area and used all of the money collected from livestreams on her social media platforms to support homeless people.
