LONDON—By entering the black door of 10 Downing Street at the heart of the British government, the novel coronavirus wreaking havoc across the world has shaken a country that prides itself on a cheery determination in the face of adversity.
No politician has embodied that plucky self-image as ably or completely as Boris Johnson, the British prime minister now laid low by Covid-19, the disease caused by a never-before-seen pathogen that has infected more than a million people world-wide.
By ”unorthodox”, you mean “willfully ignorant”, yes?
He ignored his own rules,social distancing,wash Your hands, infected his staff, his pregnant partner,he is now in hospital,were our real heroes risking There lives Treating him ,along with supermarket workers,postmen,care workers,delivery drivers,food banks,emergency services,etc
The guy has always had a sickly, runt of the litter appearance. Not surprising really.
The TrumpVirus has a lot to answer for. Where did COVID19 come from? Why it’s onboard a US aircraft carrier that has been out at sea since January? SenTomCotton
You think?
Here is the head of the Rockefeller university's department of biostatistics, epidemiology and research design saying lock downs and social distancing are the worst way to deal with the virus. He also says it's no worse than the flu. And it's over.
Borxit?
IT s serious please lockdown all I know it's very hard but no more solution !!!
He will get better soon. This is almost over with. We all let fear take advantage for too long, ridiculous.
Rogue PM, too bad. Heard immunity means 42 million Britons would be infected. If the death rate is 10%, 4.2 million Britons would die. The price is simply too high to pay.
Wow. You don't say. You mean 'herd immunity' might have been the type of BS that any other sane country thought it was? Well, colour me surprised. 🙄
People have become obsessed - it’s like a cult (created in the same way The Cult of Trump was in the US). UK has a cabinet based government with a Prime Minister - not a president. Whilst not ideal to be a Minister short it should function with one missing.
he's a super rich suit he will live
Was not aware there was an 'orthodox' response around the world to dealing with this rather unprecedented situation...?
Correct me if am wrong ... he visited a hospital treating people infected from corona about 2 weeks back without a mask and shook hands with doctors and infected patients
Nobody with any intelligence is shocked that someone who was boasting about shaking hands a few weeks ago now has the virus. Stupid is as stupid does. Nor are we surprised that he is totally incapable of running a country.
'Unorthodox' is a euphemism for ENTIRELY FUCKED UP.
Perhaps they should elect the Queen. She did a good job the other night. Just kidding about the election BTW but she did provide a good object lesson on how honesty and empathy change the narrative.
'Unorthodox' as in very similar to most other European governments Strange headline
realDonaldTrump should go visit him in person as a gesture of good faith. A personal one on one visit would show that he cares about people. Come on donald show some compassion and go see your friend Boris. askingforafriend
Conservative governments are really, really bad at governing , always have been always will be.
No it hasn’t. The media spin has heightened people’s anxiety. The bollocks printed by the media. Like you
Chandra_bhs Most of the European nations were not wise enough to make decisions to prevent the incursions at that crucial times
Herd immunity is a very wrong beginning of containment
he fixed his hair. will take more than that to stop the comparisons with trump.
What planet are you on. I have never seen so much bloody twaddle in my life. You have fallen to paparazzi. Sad you were once a respected news media.
The U.K. government's policy of dither, delay, and spring into action late is problematic.
Congrats stupid Britons!!!
“Unorthodox”? Come on.
CómoAndaremosAquí.
Do the world a favor and send your owner to visit Boris personally. Then maybe millions of people might stay alive. Thanks ever so.
I pray 🙏 for recovery.... Hard worker PM
Wasn’t he a few weeks ago who was making jokes about the virus, and that he was going to go on shaking hands etc? Hopefully, when he gets better, he will update the medical system in the UK.
CCP must be responsible for this !
First and foremost, politics aside we wish him a speedy recovery. It isn't the right time atm but there will come a moment when our country's response to this very, very sad situation has to be analysed and some people held responsible. Same situation in the states.
What are you on about unorthodox a scientist was saying in an interview that herd immunity will slow it down in the long rung I.e when you get to 50-60% the r0 will drop below 1 anyway just mathematically. But it will happen over time so more ppl won’t die.
Boris Johnson repeated Neville Chamberlain's mistake: he underestimated the enemy and put all of Britain at risk.
What was the plan
He is taking it in the chin.
Unorthodox How can something like this be unorthodox?
The conservative that won't take a conversative stance on a pandemic. Nice
I pray for his recovery! Sincerely, Dr. Morgenstern New York City
