Boris Johnson has CV - I wonder if he followed his guidelines on hand washing and handshakes

[chomalungma]

I hope he's ok.
Honestly

He is experiencing mild symptoms.

I think with all the people he meets it's difficult to avoid, ditto Prince Charles.

I don't wish illness on him and hope he gets over it quickly.

I doubt he could follow the plot of the teddy-bear’s picnic.

And he certainly wasn’t following social distancing guidelines when being chauffeured around.

Yet another rich person tested over NHS staff who have treated Covid-19 patients (but when display symptoms are told to self-isolats).

It's not exactly surprising.

He's constantly in rooms full of other people and several other MP's have had it too. He's relatively young and has access to good medical care - I'm sure he'll be fine!

This post is highly inappropriate. A lot of people will be tested positive for a multitude of reasons.

Now isn’t the time for sniping,we’re all in the same position.

It's the Queen I'm worried about ☹️

And it might be worth considering that he has a pregnant partner. But carry on gloating if that makes people feel better.

Poor man! His partner is pregnant. He must be exhausted and stressed. Of course the PM needs testing.

There’s always one, Grumpy... He’s the Prime Minister ffs, he’s meeting people all day every day. Of course he needs to be tested before he gets to the stage of being taken to hospital.
I can’t stand him, but I don’t wish this on anyone and I don’t begrudge him a test.

To be honest, I think that at some point, whether mild or extreme, the majority of us are going to catch it at some point. So anyone crowing over this news (nobody on this thread, I just mean in general) is pretty stupid IMO.

Jeez, that’s unkind. Not a Tory but I think he’s going a good job and hope he’s ok.

Anyway of course they’re going to bloody test the PM, don’t be so chippy.

Poor guy - I hope he recovers soon.

I wonder if this doesn’t highlight the fact that we probably have a great deal more mild cases than we realise at this stage which might actually be positive.

No, he probably didn’t, OP. Also, doesn’t wash his hands after the toilet as well with him being a Tory and all.

Grow the fuck up

I feel sorry for his pregnant girlfriend right now
Itl be scary for her

I wonder if he followed his guidelines on hand washing and handshakes

You can follow all the guidelines and still test positive. You know that, right?

He looks shattered lately he really needs to rest. I don’t like him or the tories but I wouldn’t wish this virus on anyone especially a man with a stressful job and a pregnant partner.

Be prime minister they said
It'll be fun they said
Of course they tested the prime minister, it would be bizarre not to

I think this is unfair, I'm sure many people have caught the illness, despite following all of the guidelines. Let's not start blaming people for getting ill.

To be fair to him, he has been very visible and clearly hasn’t been sitting with his feet up at Chequers.

I'm not a Tory either, but I hope he recovers quickly. I would wish that for everyone. This should not be a political issue, or a cause for points scoring.

Of course he needed to be tested. He is in contact with a huge number of people, in bug meetings with them, in the House of Commons etc.

It might have also been one of the home test kits he was trying out

Given it's airborne, and said to be right through Westminster, I'd say he breathed it in.

Twitter is disgusting on this. People literally falling over themselves in glee. People saying 'it's all on him' and 'you reap what you sow'

The man has a pregnant partner ffs. I wish people would take politics out of this. This is affecting ALL of us. He never said he was immune to it.

I can’t stand him but think he’s done a good job during this crisis and wish him all the best. His pregnant girlfriend must be in bits too. It’s known that stress weakens the immune system and he’s looked shattered recently so it was only a matter of time with all the people he meets. I think it’s safe to assume the entire cabinet have been infected. What will happen if they’re all out of action for a few days?

Anyone gloating needs to have a word with themselves and realise Dominic Raab, a man with such a lack of empathy that I wonder if he’s the latest Terminator model, is next in line to lead us.
