Boris Johnson’s advisor, Dominic Cummings, is self isolating after showing symptoms of the Coronavirus.
Mr Cummings.
As you may know, the PM and the health secretary were diagnosed with the virus a few days ago, and now Boris’ advisor is self isolating over worries he may have it too. No 10 says he is remaining “in contact” with the team.
Dozens of MPs are isolating at home after Westminster had been described as a “hotbed” for infection. It’s not clear whether Mr Cummings has had a test, but the likely case is he is soon going to have one or, has indeed already been tested.
There are currently around 20,000 people confirmed to have the virus at the time of writing, with that number rising all the time.
