His age, sex and weight will all be working against him at the moment, let's hope they're just keeping an extra keen eye on him
It means getting some plasma (part of the blood) from a former patient which is likely to be rich in antibodies for the virus. Think of it as a DIY vaccine
I read somewhere that Boris had problems with pneumonia in the past, is this true and how much bearing does this help with his fight?

No change in Johnson's condition overnight which is a positive apparently so hopefully that's a bit of good news.
Agreed NW. I think a lot on here have rightly said it’s more useful looking at the trends over a few days (On the other hand the media appear to react on a daily basis !!) In particular, confirmed cases and also hospital admissions (if/when the announce them). A downward trend here would hopefully eventually lead to a downward trend on fatalities in due course.
Fingers crossed it’s at least another stable(ish) day even if the fatality numbers aren’t necessarily decreasing

This is also doing the rounds on the net.

Well, that has to be the worst possible news ever if true and you could still pass on the virus.
yep... and I also read that New York doesn’t swab anyone who dies before testing or home deaths as Coronavirus.
Just been speaking to a doctor at Milton Keynes hospital and he says they are starting to fill up. His major concern was that the age of patients was much younger than expected, including a 23 year old nurse. Pay attention youngsters!
Did you see the BBC news at 10 last night?
Flashback to the time when life was different.

Definitely. The way Raab kept repeating the line yesterday "he's in good spirits" it just felt like they were trying to spin it a bit, odd behaviour.
All the best to Mr Johnson, hope he makes a speedy recovery.
Being key is not a requirement to be still working. I'm still attending work everyday and it's not key.
Tony Lloyd the shadow secretary of state for northern ireland is in intensive care as well

When you're Dominic Raab the best strategy when speaking in public is to take a short, simple statement and keep repeating it.
Otherwise you end up with a 'Dover' moment
Careless. Especially for a man whose whole career has been based on pointing out missing apostrophes. Or have you moved on?
Yeah, I did worry for him when they brought up the famed log scale deaths graph starting from 50 deaths last night.
Didn't see it, what did he say? Also thought Raab seemed a bit nervy last night during the press conference.
Something else I'd forgotten about.
Remember when Boris joked that a push to source ventilators could be known as 'Operation Last Gasp'.
And before anyone starts, no that does not mean I want him to die ffs.

Not really as the deaths reported on one day can be many days old.
The new case count as a percentage of tests is the best matrix at the moment. The raw number of positive tests is likely to go up as the government t tries to ramp up testing
This cabinet were chosen based on their Brexit stance and not on their capabilities, so we're in a little bit of a pickle now.
