On Sunday, UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson was admitted to the hospital for “persistent symptoms of coronavirus,” and today he’s been moved to intensive care.
Johnson tested positive for the coronavirus ten days ago and had placed himself on self-isolation but continued to experience a high temperature and a cough.
According to the Business Insider, Johnson was reportedly treated with oxygen after arriving at St Thomas’ Hospital in London. His aides have become “increasingly worried” about his health because of his appearance and symptoms.

UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson will remain in hospital on Monday after being admitted for “persistent symptoms of coronavirus,” 10 days after first testing positive for it.
The prime minister was admitted to St Thomas’ Hospital in Westminster at 8 p.m. on Sunday on the advice of his doctor after continuing to exhibit a high temperature.
A spokesperson insisted on Monday that Johnson’s hospital admission was not an “emergency” measure but had merely been for precautionary reasons to carry out tests.
They refused to confirm or deny that the prime minister was suffering from pneumonia.

According to the Guardian, Johnson was “more seriously ill than either he or his officials were prepared to admit,” which reported a source suggesting Johnson “was being seen by doctors who were concerned about his breathing.”
Can you imagine that? A top-ranking government official, dying of COVID-19. Now that would be something, wouldn’t it? Not that I am wishing that on anyone, but that would certainly wake a few people up, who are currently ignoring it.
