Britain’s PM ‘stable’ in intensive care

Prime Minister Boris Johnson began a third day in intensive care yesterday battling the coronavirus.

"I understand the prime minister is in a stable condition, he's comfortable and in good spirits," Edward Argar, a junior health minister, told Sky News. "He has in the past had some oxygen but he's not on ventilation."

The Times reported Johnson's persistently high temperature had fallen.
