COVID vaccinations for people in Moray over the age of 80 are being rolled out.
Surgeries in Fochabers, Buckie and Lossiemouth are among those to have held vaccine clinics yesterday and today, with more planned tomorrow and next week.
The Institute in Fochabers was used as a vaccination centre by the local surgery, while Moray Coast practice in Lossiemouth is vaccinating 540 people over two days.
Other surgeries, with support from NHS Grampian, are rolling out the first phase of the Oxford/AstraZeneca vaccine to the most vulnerable groups.
While Moray and Scotland remains in a firm lockdown to try and supress the spread of the coronavirus, the vaccine has been described by nursing staff locally as a "glimmer of hope".
