Coronavirus: Prime Minister Boris Johnson tests positive

As the COVID_19 pandemic continues to massacre some persons and destroy many bonds, one of the most prominent world figures has just tested positive for the deadly virus.

Mr Boris Johnson said he developed mild symptoms over the past 24 hours, including a high temperature and cough.

He said he will now self-isolate in No. 10 but will “continue to lead the government’s response via video-conference as we fight this virus”.

Mr Johnson was last seen on Thursday night, as he clapped outside No 10 as part of a nationwide gesture to thank NHS staff for their continual fight against the pandemic.

In a video on his Twitter account, Mr. Johnson said: “I’m working from home and self-isolating and that’s entirely the right thing to do.
