The epitome of not following the Government’s advice, wasn’t clever shaking hands the other week with patients with the virus in that Kettering hospital the other week. Jesus, how many others did he have contact with before isolating?
Is it a private hospital or will he have to face the NHS his party have been starving of doctors and nurses for the last decade ?
He looked really unwell last week.
I think there's more than meets the eye
I don’t like his politics but I hope he’s doing ok. Shows how at risk we all are.
Guess he will go to St Thomas', a world leading NHS hospital.Quote:

When it was first disclosed that he had the virus he said he'd be doing the press conferences from his flat. Hes been conspicuous by his absence since (apart from a couple of days).
One of those days he was just wearing an open collared shirt, the next he had shirt, jumper and jacket. He didn't look well.
How did he get through to 111?
As is the case with any of us, he could have underlying health problems that have yet to be identified. Either that or he could have contracted an especially high dose of the virus.Quote:

One of the big questions is - are people more susceptible if they have a large dosage of the virus. He was boasting about shaking the hands of virus sufferers (although I suspect he was lying) - so it could be he had a large dosage of the virus and that has resulted in him getting it quite hard.Quote:

This is one of the reasons doctors and nurses are being so badly affected.
Well he should be in whatever hospital will take him , his life is no more important than a poor little kid or someones elderly motherQuote:

Usually people recover in a week. Any longer, and it increases the chances of pneumonia. No idea if he is/was a smoker.Quote:

Don't get me wrong - I'll shed no tears but it's the last thing we need.
Hes been admitted as a precautionary measure
Thousands of people wont get that opportunity , in fact most will suffer at home
But dont forget folks , we are all in this together

What a stupid thing for you to say. I have not attempted to distinguish between whether the PM gets it or a member of the public. I’m merely pointing out that none of us know how our bodies will react/cope if we get the virus.Quote:

There is enough chaos in the governemnt with all this without the problems losing the leader will cause. The country doesn't need or deserve the extra problems it would bring
Tell Anne’s family that.Quote:
