Britains Queen Elizabeth, 94, and her husband Prince Philip, 99, are likely to be amongst the first ones to receive the Pfizer/BioNTech vaccine against COVID-19 in United Kingdom. 


After the UK government declared the vaccination process to be the biggest immunisation programme in history, 50 National Health Service (NHS) hospitals have geared up to rollout the first consignment of the vaccine that will be administered first to the frontline healthcare workers and people over the age of 80 from Tuesday. 

The Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) declared that the vaccine will ensure 95% protection against COVID-19 and marked it safe for human use against the novel coronavirus. 

The first batch imported from Belgium consists of 800,000 doses. Until now UK has placed an order for 40 million doses of the Pfizer/BioNTech vaccine. The UK government has also reached to an agreement to gain early access to over 300 million doses of other vaccines, after approval from regulatory bodies. 

Despite of major complexities, hospitals will kick start the first phase of the ?largest scale vaccination campaign in our countrys history from Tuesday, said Health Secretary Matt Hancock. 

I urge everybody to play their part to suppress this virus and follow the rules to protect the National Health Service while they carry out this crucial work, Hancock added.
