Sir Ian McKellen has become the latest celebrity to be photographed receiving the Covid-19 vaccine.
The 81-year-old star of the X-Men and Lord of the Rings films said he felt "euphoric" getting vaccine against covid-19. Ian got his vaccine at Queen Mary's University Hospital in London.
"Anyone who has lived as long as I have is alive because they have had previous vaccinations," said the veteran actor. Ian added- "Who wouldn't want immunity from Covid-19 with a painless jab??" tweeted Leith after getting her jab this week.
Sir Ian said it was "a very special day" to get the "painless" and "convenient" vaccination from GP Dr Phil Bennett-Richards and happily recommends to get vaccination for everyone.
Healthcare workers, the elderly and people living in care homes are among the first to receive the vaccine in the UK. Those receiving the Pfizer vaccine are given a booster jab 21 days after their first dose of vaccine.
