The Duchess of Cambridge has received her first dose of a Covid-19 vaccine, following in the footsteps of her husband who was jabbed earlier this month. A photo of Kate being injected on Friday was posted on the Kensington Palace Twitter account on Saturday afternoon. In an accompanying message the duchess said: “Yesterday I received my first dose of the Covid-19 vaccine at London’s Science Museum. It comes after the Duke of Cambridge received his own first jab from NHS staff at the Science Museum earlier this month. William had previously spoken in favour of the vaccine and hailed the “monumental” success of the Covid-19 jab programme.
