Boris Johnson admitted to hospital for coronavirus

News of Johnson’s admission to hospital came just over an hour after Queen Elizabeth II gave a rare televised address, which was pre-recorded, to rally spirits in what she said was an “increasingly challenging time.”

Leading British politicians including Hancock, Keir Starmer, the new Labour leader, Scotland’s First Minister Nicola Sturgeon and London Mayor Sadiq Khan wished the prime minister well on social media.

Asked about the prime minister’s health earlier Sunday, Hancock told Sky News that Johnson was “OK.”

“He has still got a temperature … I was lucky, I had two pretty rough days and then I bounced back and some people do get it pretty mildly, and then for others, it’s very, very serious and the prime minister is not at that end of the spectrum.”

At the start of his evening press conference, President Donald Trump wished Johnson well.

“I want to stress our nation’s well wishes to Prime Minister Boris Johnson as he wages his own personal fight with the virus,” Trump said. “All Americans are praying for him.“
