@PicsInRed where did you read that?

Are people so incapable of finding their own way to a news source that they need it spoon fed to them in this thread? Jesus Christ.

SirChable · 06/04/2020 20:18

Please let's not make this political!!!

Really. Hmm

This. Save the ‘point scoring’ for afterwards.

Dirtystreetpie · 06/04/2020 20:18

UK PM Boris Johnson taken to intensive care www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-52192604

News flashed on my phone

Does ICU mean ventilation?

BakedCam · 06/04/2020 20:18

Oh no, Pics?

Any links?

Iain read a statement about it on LBC and is talking about it just now. Apparently it's precautionary.

IsolatedIzzy · 06/04/2020 20:19

BBC breaking news alert

Apolloanddaphne · 06/04/2020 20:19

Breaking news on BBC too. It isn't looking good. Poor man.

DartmoorChef · 06/04/2020 20:19

Poor boris. I really hope he pulls through. His partner must be so worried too. 😢

Can’t stand the man or his politics but thoughts are with his pregnant girlfriend and his family. No different to anyone else at this point - he’ll be unaware of much but his family will be very frightened. Every death is a tragedy; let’s hope for a recovery.

Mlou32 · 06/04/2020 20:20

God, I really hope he makes a recovery.
