he, this weekend, talking about how boris johnson is a strong guy.ortunately, this virus does not seem impressed by that quality. the two men are often linked in their style of governance. it's kind of taken as an article of faith here that our government lost up to two months of preparation time in getting ready for this. is it equally an article of faith, are people realizing in the uk that they moved very late when johnson finally came out and told people to remember remain at home? hell of a windup, and we have lost our come coms with bill n our correspondent in london. but katy, we got the gist of the story that boris johnson, the man we are seeing on the screen, has been moved to intensive care. >> we certainly did, and to the point you were just making about being slow to lock people down in the uk, there was a sense in the uk that a herd immunity may be a better way to approach this. that was quickly walked back when they realized the death toll that could result in that. and just over the weekend, brian, we heard the queen give her address.

i mean, i wish boris johnson of the illness been in him?risjohnson the absolute best, i can only speak from i wish borisjohnson the absolute best, i can only speakfrom my experience and what i've heard in terms of what's going on in the news, it's all speculative at the moment as far as i'm aware, but patients admitted to intensive care you know, as i said, they require oxygen come sometimes they require a bit more support with a special facemask, or they require a full—blown coma with a ventilator, a breathing machine to help them with their breathing. and we don't know, i don't know specifically not being his physician, or looking after him, what it is that he is requiring right now. as far as i'm aware, it's just a precautionary measure at the moment. you can be in intensive care using as a precaution, that is right. yes, well, there are certain to patients that, you know, aren't particularly suitable for the word, because they might need more nursing ca re because they might need more nursing care than the word may provide, sometimes we

matt hancock and boris johnson seem people at different levels.ptoms, that is delivering daily news conferences, borisjohnson is delivering daily news conferences, boris johnson is getting precautionary tests, it seems that this is a disease that hits different people at different levels. very much so, and there are many levels. very much so, and there are any levels. very much so, and there are many many factors that determine how badly you are affected. one of them is age, one people are very much less likely to be severely affected. however, the much older you get and the more other conditions you have a bit damp down your immune system the more likely you are to be severely affected. however there are other issues, but another one is the dose of virus that you get, which may be perhaps that those who live in a house with someone who has been infected and are constantly exposed to the virus may be more likely to get seriously infected. there is also a condition where your immune system also a condition where your immune syste m ca n also a cond

kristin, back at boris johnson. you know him very well. are you hearing anything from within the party? can you give us any guidance? >> no. there's an outpouring for love and support for him. all members of parliament appear to be getting and unsurprisingly. he was a huge favorite of the party and he has supported all sections of the party whether it's parliamentary membership and the voters. >> we saw he's conscious. he's not on a ventilator. he has had some oxygen treatment. tell us about the man, the sort of person that will be in there and his resilience. lots of people have been talking about that overnight. >> well, they would. boris is a real life force and a great optimist, and he will be absolutely convinced he can beat this personal battle as well as lead the country to defeat the coronavirus overall. >> there is some question about the merciness of leadership now. we were speaking to john rantool expressing some concerns about the division of leadership. dominic raab, foreign secretary, stepping up when necessary. what does tha

but boris johnson, which was an essence, the state message.ater, and not the queen of the headlines. and to some extent, the queens message is almost been lost if you look at these two front pages. yes, she is across all, the broad streets in the tabloids. but i do agree, in the morning, more people will be talking about the state of the prime minister's health and the queen did every thing right. she talked a very sombre tones about what the country is going through but rallied the spirit in the very su btle but rallied the spirit in the very subtle way, called out to the british spirit where she is qualified to comment and she did everything in our power to be both positive but also bring the gravitas that the situation requires. but as you say, all of the water with the news that the leader, the chief executive of this exercise is so under the weather that you continue trying to direct matters from his hospital bed does seem a bit reckless. if anything, hospital bed does seem a bit reckless. ifanything, one hospital bed does seem a bit reck

more now on the main story, the news that the prime minister boris johnson is tonight in intensive caret st thomas‘ hospital in london, suffering persistent effects of coronavirus. in a moment, we'll speak to our political editor laura kuenssberg, but first our health editor hugh pym. we can re—cap and remind viewers of what we know about the prime minister's condition tonight and what is likely in terms of treatment in the next 24—48 hours. what is likely in terms of treatment in the next 24-48 hours. what we know from the statement, just after eight o'clock he went into intensive ca re eight o'clock he went into intensive care as a precaution should he need ventilation, so the suggestion is he did not need a mechanical ventilator which would have required sedation and a tube in his airway, so it is a precaution. they want to monitor the prime minister closely so that is the sentiment at the moment but what we don't know is where things will be overnight into tomorrow morning. they will be watching all sorts of different signals from how he is coping and all the monitoring going on, ci

we are all willing you on, boris, get well soon. one of mr johnson predecessors had this message. r boris and thinking of him and praying and thinking of his family and hoping that he gets well soon and hoping that he gets well soon and gets back to number ten where i know he wants to be and where we all wa nt know he wants to be and where we all want him to be. boris is a very tough, very resilient, very fit person, i know that from facing him on the tennis court and i am sure he will come through this. friends of the prime minister say he a fighter. he's a pretty fit guy, he may not look that fit, he's got a heavy frame, played a lot of rugby at school, fairly big guy but he plays tennis very well to a high standard, he runs regularly and i think if anyone has got a chance of beating this, then boris johnson anyone has got a chance of beating this, then borisjohnson has the chance of doing that. an unprecedented health emergency for the country, unprecedented situation in government, and an uncertain road ahead. as we heard, downing street say the prime minister is in intensive c

. >> fast-moving indeed and a fire deterioration from boris johnson. just four hours ago, a press conference in which they said he was in good spirits. he was just in the hospital for precautionary tests. two hours after the press conference was when boris johnston was taken to the icu, the intensive care unit. we are learning that just before he was taken, he had a phone call to the foreign secretary and the person who from now on will deputize on his behalf. making it clear that this does not mean dominic rob has become prime minister. but at the foreign secretary will now make all of those important decisions to do with the handling of the coronavirus case moving forward as well as any national security decisions. boris johnson has been struggling with coronavirus for ten days now. a couple other people in the cabinet fell ill. they bounced back very quickly. we've been hearing that boris johnson couldn't shake his symptoms. his fever remained very high. he was said to be coughing as uttering his way through cabinet meetings which he was carrying out

prime minister boris johnson remains in a london hospital johnson said he was in good spirits he will stay under observation after several tests for persistent symptoms and in the united states new york governor andrew cuomo says the state health care system is at maximum capacity but a daily decline in the number of hospitalizations could suggest a possible leveling out of infections they're also talk about let's begin our coverage in europe with paul brennan. 2 you're a fast another significant number on monday as the continent's death toll from corona virus exceeded 50000 people that's the vast majority of the 70000 who died globally so far but while the infection is still on an upward curve in some european countries in others there are signs that the contagion is starting to stabilize austria hopes to allow small shops and garden centers to reopen on april the 14th with restrictions potentially lifted on larger shops and hairdressers on may the 1st. but speaking from behind a protective per spec screen the austrian chancellor warned that everything depends on the infection rate t

prime minister boris johnson already one of the most high profile current virus patients yet is in intensive care in london he was transferred after his symptoms got worse on monday night johnson was admitted to hospital on sunday he was moved as a precaution in case he needs a ventilator over the prime minister out of action foreign secretary dominic robb is stepping in to lead the government. already chalons correspond in london this hour he joins us live from the british capital was the latest word on his condition . or the most up to date information we have has come from michael gove the cabinet secretary a man who incidentally since he gave out that information has said that he is isolating himself after a member of his family started showing symptoms of 19 and what michael gove said about the prime minister's condition is that it hasn't deteriorated significantly since he was admitted to the intensive care units of since i was off the hospital last night that boris johnson was given oxygen supports but he hasn't been so serious yet that he needed to be put on a ventilator with a tube

we understand boris johnson prime minister had at saint thomas‘.en telling friends he believes he owes his life to those doctors and nurses who were there at st thomas‘ hospital during his stay. something we heard from downing street earlier this week, when he was moved from intensive care back to the ward, he was waving his appreciation to those workers as he was moved. as helena was saying, borisjohnson did become very ill and showed severe symptoms and initially we were told he had a temperature. he was doing south shot videos from downing street and it was on sunday evening he was admitted as a precaution. it was the following day he was admitted to intensive care and the concern over that period was the persistence of the symptoms, they had lasted beyond the symptoms, they had lasted beyond the one—week period. i think a lot of people will be very pleased the prime minister, who i‘m sure we‘ll return to work at some point, but he is out of hospital and his recovery continues. i suppose it is highly likely that by the time he comes back to work
