Boris Johnson remains in intensive care at St Thomas’ hospital in London on Tuesday morning but he has not required a ventilator, the Cabinet Office minister Michael Gove has said.

Mr. Gove, who described foreign secretary Dominic Raab as “the person who is running the country”, is now self-isolating at home after a member of his family began to display symptoms of the coronavirus.

World leaders have sent a message of support to Mr. Johnson. There was “no change” in the prime minister’s condition overnight, sources close to him said after he was given oxygen and moved into ICU on Monday following a deterioration in his symptoms.
