Bhasha has been working tirelessly ever since she retuned to England and feels grateful that she has received her first dose of vaccine as, “being BAME [black, Asian, minority ethnic], I'm in a high-risk group. I feel so grateful to be in the position to have received the vaccine when millions are in the waiting line across the globe. My prayers are with everyone who's waiting patiently at home, including my own family members who I hope will get their vaccines soon too”, she added. 

The front liner who is appreciated for her continuous work to help people shared that she and her colleagues were excited when they got to know that they will be getting the vaccine and she also added that she has no side affects as she did a zoom call where she worked out, press-ups and celebrated.

Dr Bhasha Mukherjee who is the longest serving Miss England has also been carrying out with her crown duties virtually after working 12-hour shifts often seven days a week and became an ambassador for the eco-friendly feminine hygiene Plastfree Pads.
