Coronavirus: Boris Johnson moved to intensive care as symptoms worsen

It comes as the number of coronavirus hospital deaths in the UK reached 5,373 - an increase of 439 in a day.Intensive care is where doctors look after the sickest patients - his admission to ICU is the clearest indication of how ill the prime minister is.

We do not know the full details of Mr Johnson's condition, but he is conscious and not being ventilated. Not every patient in intensive care is ventilated, but around two-thirds are within 24 hours of admission with Covid-19.This leaves the body struggling to get enough oxygen into the blood and to the body's vital organs.But the cornerstone of the prime minister's care will depend on getting enough oxygen into his body and supporting his other organs while his immune system fights the virus.

Chancellor Rishi Sunak said his thoughts were with the prime minister and his pregnant partner, Carrie Symonds, and that Mr Johnson would"come out of this even stronger". On Saturday, Ms Symonds said she had spent a week in bed with the main symptoms. She said she had not been tested for the virus.while Northern Ireland's First Minister Arlene Foster added she was"praying for a full and speedy recovery".Mr Johnson's predecessor, Theresa May, and former Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn both said their thoughts were with him.

ProveIt i bet you cant.

Hydroxychloroquine will be administered. Bojo will get China virus done. Public acceptance of CURES rather than vaccines peddled by Bill Gates. Big pharma exposed. China will pay trillions in comp.

Be careful not to choke on your aspirations, minister.

Why do people think they can berate others or wish them ill because they are sat behind a keyboard. Boris or anyone in fact are fellow human beings, how would you feel if it was your relative? Grow up or leave the chat to the adults. Get well Bozzer.

Hope he is ok!

Michael Gove said this morning on the metro site as it's being updated that Boris has been given oxygen but he hasn't used a ventilator even though it was there if he needed it, the further updates should be coming through soon.

Hope he get well soon

Wish this happens to trump

Oh, what are they doing to him?!

I wish premier Johnson soon recover again , god bless him

🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

Get well, keep strong 👍

Get well soon 💕

Come on chap x

How is Prime minister Johnson doing? My thoughts and prayers are for you and everyone with this horrible virus.

Some so called journalists were stating the Prime Minister was taking up an NHS bed unnecessarily. These same people should apologise to Boris Johnson.

If some people in the West think that they can continue to bully and discredit the Chinese people in the 21st century, then 1.4 billion Chinese will exercise our will to protect our interests! God is dead, we have the right to let others respect us, in any way!

Genuinely, wish him a speedy and full recovery.

Quick recovery Mr Prime Minister from our former coloniser!!

Get well soon

You’ve been doing such a good job, in such a difficult time. Get well soon. You’re in my prayers

We have to have hope. And pray for many that are in critical condition. Makes some prayer.

Watching this news unfold is concerning sending our best wishes to the PM for a speedy recovery. borisjohnson primeminster

wish prime minister recover soon

Not everyone agrees or supports Mr. Johnsons team and decision making. I do like Mr. Johnson but have not alway agreed with what he has done. But he has been the rock the UK has needed, I wish him a speedy recovery. Keep fighting Mr. Johnson

Where is the update this is hours old . I thought he was in trouble days ago, hope this is a precautionary step . The bloke should have stopped working, but that old stiff upper lip kicked in & keep servicing the country. He is a true English character.

I am Indian . I pray to my god please safe Boris Johnson.👏👏👏

I send all my support to Boris Johnson, to his family and to the British people at this difficult moment'

Worst news today

Where are the beds reserved a week in advance in an area reserved only for Boris in intensive care for people who are dying at home, alone and abandoned?🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮 a country that leaves its abandoned people to die is not a country!! Is a big bullship!!!

1. visit the hospital without protective equipment 2. Still shaking hands after the outbreak spread through the community 3. Quarantined at home even though his health is not good It's a miracle he's not sick!

Quien a hierro mata? A hierro muere! En vez de protegernos se han preocupado únicamente de ocultar y restringir la compra de test rápido para detectar COVID19 y otros materiales para el NHS. Hemos sido el último país de la UE en cerrar los colegios y auto-aislarnos.🤮🖕🤮

The problem with this virus is that it isn't the virus that kills you. It's your own immune response.. If Boris is experiencing a Cytokine Storm, he's in big trouble. A out of control immune system takes no prisoners.

CNN I've walked on shallow roads. I've felt a free breeze on my skin. I've cried in the gentle wind. So may passing will not be my end. Love was my only friend. For those tree,s we know till the end. Thoughts by me who pass your dear friend.

Well he ok'd 5g rollout and are they rolling it out fast this year; Check 5g rollout where you live

Hoping for his speedy recovery from USA, praying for one of our own US born!

We know. You said earlier. Shouldn't 'News' always be new? It's not news if you already know. It's repetition

Thanks for repeating the news, I missed it the first time.

Come on Boris please pull through this!!! 🙏🙏🙏🙏

PrayForBoris

Prayers from the US 🇺🇸 🙏🙏 Get well soon! 🙏🙏

Hope you get well soon god bless you we all be praying for you Speeding recovery

Come on Boris. You can beat this.

'Put ME in intensive care will you? BAH!'

as a precaution per number 10....

So who is currently in charge? I’m sorry I’m advance for my ignorance-who steps in as acting PM while he’s in the intensive care unit?

I, personally, couldn't give a fuck. He was more than willing a few weeks ago to let the elderly die. I love watching karma in motion.

medical supplies MUST NOT BE WASTED ON malignant shit funnels like him. He needs to go down in the history books as the UK PM that died from COVID19 due to narcissism and stupidity.

I wish Mr. Priminister Boris Johnson to get well soon!!!

I hope he gets better soon 🙏

Is this BBC News feed on an 8 hour time delay?

Hope for a Speedy recovery from USA!

Hope he will make it because I'm certain he will change.....for the good ...for Britan

Thoughts out to him.

Come on Boris, 💙💙💙

Brexit curse? Naah, just being stupid about this pandemic in early March.

This was the last night news, what is an update as of this morning?

Hoping for his recovery

Do we know if he's on a ventilator? Sending best wishes for a speedy recovery.

Rip

Hope that bottom feeder doesn't jump the queue for a ventilator! Also, don't send any from Europe, he'd hate that!

Boris Johnson should, however, be pleased that he is part of his herd immunity program. Is there any immunity and, if so, how long does it last? Would having had other viruses provide some protection? Again adding sensationalist photos with headlines. I love but not this shameful, tabloid style image selection.
