Prof Hill said:"He is very likely to have been put on a mechanical ventilator to breath for him. A ventilator can be invasive or non invasive, for example breathing through a specialised mask. Invasive ventilation tends to be recommended for COVID-19 patients. Intensive care ventilators have sophisticated software and sensors to enable them to adjust the way they work around the needs of the patient, and to change the amount of oxygen inhaled with the air.
Dr Simon Clarke, a microbiologist, has told Sky News that the NHS will probably be supporting the prime minister with fluids and"potentially also trying to dampen down the immune response". But he added:"I think probably what's most likely is that he's receiving some oxygen as well, to help his breathing." It is understood Boris Johnson is not on a ventilator.
Dr Clarke added:"Ventilation is a particularly invasive procedure, so just because someone has a bit of oxygen given to them, doesn't mean they're ventilated. Ventilated is much more invasive.Dr Clarke told Sky News:"I'll say this to you, the NHS, particularly at this moment, doesn't give up intensive care beds just for people to be looked over - it doesn't work like that, even for prime ministers.
"He would not be in intensive care unless he needed to be in intensive care, especially not at this time, and I think it's probably about time that the press people in Number 10 started levelling with us about what his condition really is." Prof Hill added:"One of the features of COVID-19 in all countries seems to be that many more men become seriously ill than women - especially in the over 40 age group. Also we know that people under about 60 seem to have a higher chance of making a recovery from critical illness with COVID-19 than older people. But there is no doubt this turn of events means Boris Johnson is extremely sick.
He will get a magical drug called Coronavirus vaccine made in the France( subject to if he really ill and effected by so called Coronavirus)!
UK made F1 ventilator on the treatment list? Wishes he speedy recovery
Get well soon boris
Why is he in intensive care? Are yo that f**king dim?
That is privileged, private and personal information. What we need to know is is he recovering or getting worse. The rest is none of our business. We should just focus on wishing him - and all the many others suffering here, and across the globe - a full and speedy recovery.
hope u get through this 🙏🙏
I will not feel any sympathy for anyone that has put themselves first over the prosperity and dignity of our country.
In intensive care because he has corona virus and I'm guessing he will be getting treatment for corona virus 🤷🏻♂️
