LONDON -- Prime Minister Boris Johnson was recovering in a hospital ward Friday after ending three days in intensive care for COVID-19, as his government urged Britons to stay at home over Easter.

The 55-year-old leader left intensive care at London's St Thomas' Hospital on Thursday evening and will now be monitored closely during what Downing Street called "the early phase of his recovery".Johnson's improving condition came as the government continues to impose an unprecedented nationwide lockdown to try to stem the spread of the deadly coronavirus.

He was hospitalized Sunday over concerns he still had a cough and high temperature after spending 10 days in self-isolation in a flat above his Downing Street office. US President Donald Trump called Johnson's release from intensive care "a very positive development".
