Eunice Fick, a Bellville resident, celebrated her 102nd birthday by getting the COVID-19 vaccine on Wednesday, May 26. She told Die Burger that although she was a little nervous at first, she feels good after getting vaccinated.
Fick has two daughters, seven grandchildren and sixteen great-grandchildren. She lives alone in a flat behind the Eureka retirement centre, and is visited by family often.
