Boris Johnson confirms that he has tested positive for the coronavirus

According to a tweet by UK prime minister himself:

"Over the last 24 hours I have developed mild symptoms and tested positive for coronavirus. I am now self-isolating, but I will continue to lead the government's response via video-conference as we fight this virus. Together we will beat this. #StayHomeSaveLives"

In any case, let's all wish BoJo a speedy recovery in combating the disease.
