Dr Lauren Dixon, from the Bridgegate Medical Centre in Barrow-in-Furness in Cumbria, has been visiting care homes in her area to administer the Covid vaccine to elderly residents. It is part of the huge government drive to vaccinate the entire population. Currently over four million people have received the lifesaving vaccine.

While taking a well earned rest from her work, Dr Lauren received a phone call from an entirely unexpected admirer.

Describing the moment she realised she was talking to the future King of England, Dr Lauren admitted to Yahoo.com that she was “shocked” and “really nervous”.

She added: “He was just lovely and just really kind and grateful, and saying a really big thank you to everybody that’s in our area that have really pulled together to make the vaccination effort go as well as it has.

“He asked how the roll-out had gone, he asked what it was like going into the care homes and how did they receive us arriving with the vaccine.”
