A Royal Navy medic has described the job of vaccinating people against the Covid-19 coronavirus at Bristol City s Ashton Gate stadium as probably my proudest moment .
Lt Lauren Hodges is part of a six-strong Royal Navy team who have joined the NHS doctors and nurses at the region s vaccination super-centre, and have spent the last few days carrying out vaccinations alongside civilian medical staff.
A Royal Navy medic has said taking part in the mass Covid-19 vaccination drive has been her “proudest moment”.
Lieutenant Lauren Hodges, the senior nursing officer from Portsmouth-based aircraft carrier HMS Prince of Wales, is one of six naval personnel who have been deployed to a vaccination hub at Ashton Gate, the home of Bristol City FC.
The team is working alongside health staff at the mass immunisation centre to vaccinate NHS and key workers and people aged over 80.
Lt Hodges said: “This is probably my proudest moment – being part of a national effort to hopefully get ahead of Covid and get the country back to some form of normality.
