The Queen and the Duke of Edinburgh have received COVID-19 vaccinations.

BBC News reports the vaccinations were administered yesterday by a household doctor at Windsor Castle.

The Queen who is 94 and Prince Philip who is 99 are among around 1.5 million people in the UK to have had at least one dose of a COVID-19 vaccine so far.

People aged over 80 in the UK are among the high-priority groups who are being given the vaccine first.

The couple has been spending the lockdown in England at their Windsor Castle home after deciding to have a quiet Christmas at their Berkshire residence, instead of the traditional royal family gathering at Sandringham.
