Episode description
In this special edition, Science Editor Tom Clarke speaks to the chair of the UK vaccine task force Kate Bingham on the day history is made in the battle against Covid-19 with the first vaccines being administered in Britain.
Kate delivers all you need to know about the rollout, how the vaccine will be delivered across the globe and also talks about its legacy as the NHS launches its biggest ever vaccine campaign.
And before that we meet the first person in Britain to receive the Pfizer vaccine.
Margaret Keenan, a retired jeweller from Northern Ireland, tells Health Editor Emily Morgan how it feels to make history just before her 91st birthday.
