Buckingham Palace has made the extraordinary decision to comment on private medical matters of the Queen and the Duke of Edinburgh. Following weeks of speculation on whether the two elderly royals would reveal when they received the vaccination or whether they would get it at all, a palace aide set the record straight with a brief statement.
A Buckingham Palace spokesman said: “The Queen and the Duke of Edinburgh have today received Covid-19 vaccinations.”
A palace source gave further details about the royals’ vaccination, saying the jabs had been administered by a household doctor at Windsor Castle, where the elderly royals are self-isolating.
The palace won’t comment on whether the Queen and Prince Philip were given the #oxfordvaccine/#AstraZeneca or the #PfizerBioNTech vaccine”.
