(Eagle News) — The first person in Canada to be immunized with the Covid-19 vaccine has died.

The public health authority in Quebec City says Gisele Levesque, 89, died of natural causes, adding her death was not related to Covid-19.

She had been living in a long-term care home in Quebec City.

It was there, on Dec.14, that she received the Pfizer vaccine.

The agency dubbed her a figure of hope in the battle to tame the pandemic.
