JUST IN: Queen Elizabeth And Prince Philip Get COVID-19 Vaccinations—Britain’s Queen Elizabeth and her husband, the Duke of Edinburgh, Prince Philip have had their coronavirus vaccinations on Saturday.
The jabs were administered by a Household Doctor at Windsor Castle, a source told The Daily Mirror.
In an unusual move Buckingham Palace, which rarely comments on the private health matters of the monarch and duke, announced the 94-year-old head of state and her husband had been given the injection.
It is understood the Queen decided the information should be made public to prevent inaccuracies and further speculation.
A Buckingham Palace spokesman said: “The Queen and the Duke of Edinburgh have today received Covid-19 vaccinations.”
A royal source confirmed the injections were administered by a royal household doctor at Windsor Castle.
The Queen and Philip have been spending the lockdown in England sheltering at their Windsor Castle home after deciding to have a quiet Christmas at their Berkshire residence, and forgo the traditional royal family gathering at Sandringham.
