Boris Johnson reveals he has coronavirus: PM, 55, tested positive
2020-03-27
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news]
  • Now Matt Hancock tests positive for coronavirus: Health Secretary confirms he has killer virus TOO - just over an hour after Boris Johnson revealed he has the disease

  • Boris Johnson announced that he has tested positive for coronavirus as the outbreak spreads across the UK

  • Prime Minister insisted he will still lead UK's response to the crisis thanks to 'wizardry of modern technology'

  • Mr Johnson took part in applause for NHS staff from Downing Street last night and was in Commons for PMQs

  • Bombshell news will raise fears that other politicians and senior officials will have been infected as well

  • The premier will self-isolate for seven days in his flat above No11 Downing Street and he will work from there

  • But No10 insisted no other ministers need to self-isolate despite guidance for whole households to do so

  • Mr Johnson's partner Carrie Symonds pregnant and thought to have been following guidance on self-isolation
