UK prime minister, Boris Johnson has confirmed he has tested positive for coronavirus. This comes just after a Downing Street spokesperson announced in a statement that Mr. Johnson tested positive for coronavirus ‘after experiencing mild symptoms yesterday’.
Among world leaders, Johnson has been particularly proactive and vocal in the campaign for prevention and stay at home instructions to people living in Britain.
The UK has been on a lock down for over a week following Boris’s direction, still the country remains a red zone as far as the Coronavirus COVID-19 pandemic is concerned.
Confirming the news on Twitter, the 55-year-old wrote:
‘Over the last 24 hours I have developed mild symptoms and tested positive for coronavirus. I am now self-isolating, but I will continue to lead the government’s response via video-conference as we fight this virus. Together we will beat this.’
