Boris Johnson revealed he had tested positive for the disease after developing a temperature and persistent cough.

Shortly afterwards, Health Secretary Matt Hancock confirmed that he too had been diagnosed with the virus and was working from home.

Chief Medical Officer Chris Whitty, who advised the PM to take a test after examining him on Thursday afternoon, then revealed he was self-isolating after developing symptoms.

The triple blow came as the NHS braced itself for an onslaught from the virus in the coming days.

“Boris Johnson revealed he had tested positive for the disease after developing a temperature and persistent cough.”

It’s going to be interesting to watch Johnson. He can’t go more than a day without appearing on video or people will start to questions whether he is in good enough shape to be running the country.
