The National Clinical Director for the Scottish Government was seen at the NHS Louisa Jordan in Glasgow on Friday.
He shared a photograph of himself receiving the jab on Twitter and has urged other Scots to get theirs when offered.
Mr Leitch tweeted: “Thank you to optometrist Uzair and everyone at the NHS Louisa Jordan at the SECC Glasgow.
“From invention, research, manufacture, procurement and distribution to my arm. I am enormously grateful. Please get yours when offered.”
