May Parsons moved to the UK from the Philippines 19 years ago to continue her career as a nurse. And on the 8th of December 2020, she made history when she administered the world's first Coronavirus vaccine outside of clinical trials. May was then chosen to represent the NHS to receive the historic George Cross award from Her Late Majesty the Queen, in recognition of the exceptional efforts of NHS staff across the country during the pandemic. She has become a fierce advocate for nurses, especially those from abroad, fighting for better treatment and respect.
