Timeline: UK PM Boris Johnson's activities before his hospitalisation with coronavirus
India TodayBritish Prime Minister Boris Johnson was admitted to hospital for tests on Sunday in what Downing Street said was a "precautionary step" because he was showing persistent symptoms of the coronavirus 10 days after testing positive for it. March 27, Friday - Johnson said he had tested positive for the coronavirus and that he would self-isolate in Downing Street. April 3, Friday - A weary-looking Johnson said he would remain in isolation as he continued to have mild symptoms of Covid-19, the respiratory disease caused by the novel coronavirus, including a high temperature, a week after he tested positive for the virus. "Although I'm feeling better and I've done my seven days of isolation, alas I still have one of the symptoms, a minor symptom, I still have a temperature, so in accordance with government advice I must continue my self-isolation until that symptom itself goes," Johnson said in a video message, wearing an open-necked shirt.
