This week, a spokesman has shared the news regarding U.K. Prime Minister Boris Johnson’s health. In details, he has been from St. Thomas’ hospital in London.

Instead, he will continue to rest and recovery at the prime minister’s official country residence.

“On the advice of his medical team, the PM will not be immediately returning to work. He wishes to thank everybody at St Thomas’ for the brilliant care he has received”. Previously, Johnson had tested positive for Covid-19 at the end of March. Following his discharge, Johnson’s fiancee Carrie Symonds has given praises to the medical staff at St Thomas’ hospital Sunday. She described that it was a “very dark” times during the last week.

“I cannot thank our magnificent NHS enough. The staff at St Thomas’ Hospital have been incredible. I will never, ever be able to repay you and I will never stop thanking you. There were times last week that was very dark indeed. My heart goes out to all those in similar situations, worried sick about their loved ones.” On another note, Foreign Secretary Dominic Raab has replaced Johnson to handle the nation’s response to the pandemic. Britain has been in lockdown since March 23. According to the latest update, the government plans to extend the restrictions.
