At 7pm last night an announcement was made that the Prime Minister had been moved to intensive care after his symptoms worsened. The country is in its third week of lockdown measures aimed at slowing the spread of the virus with people urged to stay at home and only leave the house for basic food shopping, exercise once a day and essential travel to and from work. There have been around 60,000 reported cases of the COVID-19 coronavirus in the United Kingdom and over 5,000 deaths.
