Boris Johnson admitted to hospital - now discharged

[marco]

Their communications team were well out of order when they said it was ‘routine’ and he was continuing to work - it simply was never going to be true. No one goes into hospital and takes up resources during a pandemic for a fucking check-up. This might sound grim but how many come out of IC once they are in?

well yes it obvious,,most tests could have been done at No10,only xray and ct scan which means he must have a build up in his lungs

i read 1 in 10 come off the ventalator to survive,how true that is i dont know,maybe someone else could have a say

It's 50% survival rate if you are on a ventilator. Boris isn't currently on one.

 

[cjn]

I'm totally ignorant to this, who runs the country if he needs a few weeks off to recover? Is there a standard fallback plan? Hope he gets well soon of course.

You might be right pal, maybe the 50% figure, which I’ve read a number of times, was a % of the total of all those who are admitted to hospital with covid symptoms.

 

[Ban-jani]

Come on Boris, beat the fucker!

 

[kippax4ever]

He can't still be running the country from there can he?

Let someone else have a go and rest up ffs

London radio(think Hancock) said he still running the country 1-2hrs ag0

I hope that journalist who asked today was he taking up a bed from someone seriously ill feels like a right **** now

 

[waspish]

Wishing him a full recovery but if he ends up on a ventilator the odds are not very good a 1 in 5 come through that.

Have they specified that he isn’t on one?

thanks mate for putting it right

 

[Gaylord du Bois]

It is being reported that he has been moved into intensive care as a precaution as his condition has worsened today.

Was saying yesterday that I know of two people in induced coma. He's probably not far from this himself. He's got a real fight on his hands right now.

The press have been an utter disgrace.

Isn't he into his cycling as well?

I thought he might be fitter than your average 55 year old but maybe the virus is a lot worse than many realise.

 

[pluto]

Come on Boris, pull through
Have to say his Dr should have insisted you're not working and rest from the beginning, this virus is bad
His colleagues should have told him too
He should have been resting and looking after his health

 

[Ardwick Green Blue]

The Guardian has said more or less what I posted and that is the information they have been given.

There is a lot who have died now with no underlying health conditions

I heard he had pneumonia as a child so his lungs might not be the best.
