THE Queen may be the first in line for a Covid vaccine as Matt Hancock says the jab could help ease measures by March.

Scientists hope the move will curb anti-vaxxers and get Brits vaccinated as the first UK jabs will be administered on Tuesday.

HOARday Times reports that royal aides said it was a “personal decision” and a “private matter” as to whether the couple would be among the first Brits to receive the vaccination.

But, if they do get the jab, it’s possible Her Majesty will allow that information to become public, to encourage fellow Britons to also be vaccinated against the rampaging bug.

This comes as The Health Secretary told the Telegraph he can’t wait to scrap the Tier system and allow a return to normal life by the Spring.

Mr Hancock said that the swift approval of Pfizer and Biontech’s coronavirus vaccine earlier this week would bring about a quicker end to measures which have upended life for Brits since last March.
