A Covid-19 vaccine has been injected into a patient for the first time in the UK. At 6.31am on what has been dubbed 'V Day' by Health Secretary Matt Hancock, early riser Margaret Keenan, known to friends and family as Maggie, was given the life-saving jab without "feeling a thing" by nurse May Parsons. Margaret, who is from Enniskillen in Northern Ireland and lives in Coventry, will be 91 next week and said: “I feel so privileged to be the first person vaccinated against Covid-19. "It’s the best early birthday present I could wish for because it means I can finally look forward to spending time with my family and friends in the New Year after being on my own for most of the year.” “As I said before, at the moment I don’t know how I feel, it’s just so strange and so wonderful, really,” Margaret said. “This is for a good cause so I’m so pleased I had it done.” https://www.itv.com/news/2020-12-08/covid-first-vaccine-in-uk-given-to-90-year-old-as-countrys-biggest-vaccination-campaign-begins
