British Queen Elizabeth II and her husband Prince Philip will receive the coronavirus vaccine in a few weeks, according to media reports.
The Queen, 94, and Prince Philip 99 are expected to accept the vaccine offer on the advice of their doctors.
According to reports, Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip, who are currently staying at their Windsor Castle, are among the first group identified for vaccination.
However, the Daily mail citing senior sources, reported that the monarchs would not get preferential treatment, but rather ‘stand in line’ in the first wave of injections reserved for people over 80 and nursing home residents .
Meanwhile, the Queen will celebrate Christmas at Windsor Castle for the first time in 32 years.
Buckingham Palace confirmed last week that the Queen has decided to stay at Windsor Castle for Christmas amid the coronavirus pandemic.
The palace spokesman said in a statement: “After taking into account all the appropriate advice, the Queen and The Duke of Edinburgh have decided that this year they will spend Christmas in Windsor quietly.”
The spokesperson added: “Like everyone else, they hope things will get back to normal in 2021”.
It will be the first time in 32 years that Queen will skip the celebrations at Sandringham and celebrate at Windsor Castle.
Queen has been staying at Windsor Castle since March, while Prince Philip has been there since retiring from public service in 2017.
