Covid-19 Vaccine: On Tuesday, 90-year-old British woman Margaret Maggie Keenan became the first person in the world to receive a Pfizer / BioNTech vaccine for COVID-19. Britain has launched the biggest vaccination campaign in its history. Nurse May Parsons gave this life-saving vaccine. The country’s National Health Service (NHS) called it a historic event and called it V-Day or Vaccine Day against Corona.
Dr. Hari Shukla of Indian origin also received the vaccine
Maggie is among those first contacted by NHS for a vaccine based on previously determined health risk. The other person who received the vaccine is 81-year-old William Shakespeare who comes from Warwickshire. They said that they are happy with the vaccine. Apart from this, Dr Hari Shukla, a British Indian elder aged 87 years and his 83 year old wife are included. He became the first person of Indian origin in the world to have been vaccinated for Corona.
Maggie, who will turn 91 next week, said that she is feeling very lucky to be the first person vaccinated for COVID-19. This is the best birthday present she could have wished for, as it means she will finally be able to spend some time with her family and friends. She has been single most of the year.
Maggie appealed to people to get vaccinated
Maggie has been an assistant in the jewelery shop and she retired four years ago. He has a daughter, son and four grandchildren. They are eager to go out once they get a top-up booster after 21 days. She said she thanks the staff of NHS, who took very good care of her. She appeals to the people to get the vaccine, if she can do it at the age of 90, then you can too.
