82-year-old Agnes Lovatt from Lytham St Annes has become the first person across the Fylde coast to receive the Covid-19 vaccine.

Agnes received the Pfizer vaccine this morning (8 December 2020) at Blackpool Victoria Hospital’s vaccination hub and praised the staff for their efforts.

Agnes said: “I am honoured to be the first person to get the vaccine I must admit. I had no hesitation in getting the vaccination when it was offered to me.

"The staff were outstanding and made things really easy for me and I can’t thank them enough.’’
