“Getting the jab is the best thing we can do to get back to the lives we miss so much. Let’s get the jab done,” he added in his tweet.
While urging people to take the jab, CNN quoted Johnson telling reporters: “I literally did not feel a thing, it was very good, very quick. I cannot recommend it too highly.”
Johnson was seen leaving Gassiot House Outpatient Centre at London’s St Thomas’ Hospital on Friday evening after receiving his first dose.
Last year, Johnson was diagnosed with COVID-19 and was admitted to St Thomas’ Hospital in April 2020 for treatment.
