The Sunday Times have reported that for the first 5 weeks Boris didn't bother attending COBRA meetings...
'Boris Johnson skipped five Cobra meetings on the virus, calls to order protective gear were ignored and scientists’ warnings fell on deaf ears. Failings in February may have cost thousands of lives.
It would not be until March 2 that Johnson would attend a Cobra meeting about the coronavirus. But by then it was almost certainly too late.
Britain was on course for one of the worst infections of the most deadly virus in more than a century.'

Boris set to return to work soon - perhaps this time he can actually attend some COBRA meetings?
