Ironic that the man whose party has been cutting the NHS for years and now his life depends on them.

Get Well Boris, Best Wishes to all those suffering due to the virus. BIG LOVE TO OUR NHS

He is the victim of his own strategy in dealing with this pandemic. When you put economy above people's lives, you forgot that you are a human being too, and you will be suffered consequences just like others! Herd immunity is the most cruel strategy, which worse than no strategy!

People are dying, that's not just a few hundred and thousands of numbers. How many people will be traumatised, disappointed, and doubt the meaning of life even lucky to be alive after this pandemic. By then, loses will not just lifes, spirits, inspiration, but the country as a whole, not mention the economy!

People's life should always be first, without life, anything else is nothing. As a decision maker, and being elected by your people, their life and trust is holding in your hands, please do take care of your people first, the return is a prosperous and united country!

I just hope it's true & Boris is recovering.

Title...938 dead! Chats about Boris ( get well ) and ending protective measures. I feel for the 938 and their families and health worker turned away twice from hospital only to die.
If you ever thought you were a person you wouldnt now..ya just a number.

[jimmyturner]

absolutley devastated sending love to all the victims

The UK government's response to the epidemic so far: the cure is better than prevention: and there is no cure (!) 😮

[mike.B.]

The prime minister took measures too late, afterwards he was hospitalised himself and people were basically abandoned on the way. The highest number of deaths per day in the whole Europe

I'm glad to hear Boris is on the mend, that's a relief, I hope he continues to recover from now.

[charliebridges]

Delighted to hear that Boris is improving and I hope he makes a full recovery. That goes for everyone round the world who is suffering with Covid 19. From a democratic socialist.

Distancing at school? How can it be achieved?

[ati]

[sarahf]

3rd day in intensive care reflects the fact that someone is very ill

[albertorudi]

Mr. PM, when/If you'll be fine, will you repeat again your "herd immunity" shameful theory?

[cab]

Not shaking hands now, is he? Ignorant response to virus potential, a hard way to respect science and predictions.

[checkeredflagfilms]

Ironic to see ALL the pedestrian vehicle traffic surging along, in the background..amidst the LOCK DOWN!

[ymimad]

well we have been praying for him to recover. He must live!

[louisecameron]

This lockdown will never end every couple of weeks they check the graphs get used to staring at the walls feel sorry for people in high rise flats with no garden

[jirikrajnak]

Boris took it on the chin. What a guy.
