Boris Johnson has said the UK is “beginning to turn the tide” against the coronavirus pandemic but insisted the lockdown must go on to avoid a potentially devastating “second peak” of infections.
The Prime Minister made a statement outside Number 10 on his return to Westminster after recovering from a serious bout of Covid-19.
Mr Johnson – who is described as “raring to go” after a three-week absence from regular duties – addressed the public before leading a meeting of the “war cabinet” to thrash out the country’s next steps in tackling the crisis. He vowed to use the “maximum possible transparency” with the British people in sharing his calculations for lifting measures.
Speaking outside his Downing Street residence a month and a day since testing positive for the virus which threatened his life, Johnson compared the disease to a street criminal that the British people were wrestling to the floor.

Some businesses in Georgia that were forced to close due to the deadly coronavirus outbreak are now allowed to reopen, despite the coronavirus death toll in the U.S. exceeding 50,000. This comes as President Donald Trump said his comments about using disinfectant for internal use in COVID-19 patients was “sarcastic.” He later made brief comments at Friday’s coronavirus task force briefing and then left without taking questions.

U.S. Vice President Mike Pence said Friday that 5.1 million people in the country have been tested for COVID-19, the disease caused by the novel coronavirus.
Pence was joined by U.S. President Donald Trump and Stephen Hahn, head of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), for a daily briefing on the government’s response to the pandemic.
Earlier in the day, Trump addressed comments he made Thursday in which he floated the idea of injecting disinfectant or shining light inside the body to kill the virus. He claimed he was being “sarcastic” when he made the statements.
New York Governor Andrew Cuomo gave a briefing to media on the state’s ongoing COVID-19 crisis on Friday.
Cuomo said that the state’s total COVID-19 hospitalizations are declining. However, how fast the curve for hospitalizations and cases will continue to decline depends on how citizens adhere to social distancing measures and how much testing for the virus could be conducted, Cuomo said.
The governor added that by the time the U.S. instated a travel ban from China, the “horse had already left the barn,” meaning the novel coronavirus had already spread worldwide, and the virus in the state likely came from the strain in Europe after around 13,000 flights from Europe landed in New York and New Jersey.
Controversy over a leaked Gilead Sciences document that stated studies of its hopeful coronavirus treatment, Remdesivir, have proven inconclusive. Gilead has come out saying the document contained inappropriate characterization blaming some of the issues on low enrollment in the study. Dr. Scott Gottlieb, member of the boards of Pfizer and biotech company Illumina and former FDA commissioner, joins “Squawk Box” to discuss.
Germany’s aggressive response to the coronavirus pandemic has been praised as one of the strongest in Europe. But despite some businesses reopening, Chancellor Angela Merkel says that the crisis in the country is still in its early stages.
