  • UK. London hospitals face "tsunami" of cononavirus patients

Boris Johnson has tested positive for coronavirus, the politician reported this Friday in a video posted on his Twitter account.

"In the past 24 hours, I have developed mild symptoms and tested positive for coronavirus," said the conservative leader on the recording. Johnson, whose romantic partner, Carrie Symonds, is pregnant with what will be the couple's first baby, added that although she has "isolated" herself, she will continue to "lead the government's video conference response" against the pandemic.

The British Prime Minister's administration has been widely criticized for not having taken sufficient measures to protect the British population from the virus.

According to the latest data, the UK accounts for 463 deaths and 9,529 confirmed cases of Covid-19, although actual infections are estimated at tens of thousands.
