It could be crap... like the pope weeks ago... dunno...



But if he's on a ventilator for severe respiratory problems, it's conceivable...

[Berry Sweet]

Its possible.  If so, I bet it would take time to have a plan and come up with something to tell the public.



I don't know too much about him except for his messy hair.

He's stable , conscious, receiving oxygen, but not on a ventilator according to the news this morning.

BoJo is not dead.

Tonight our TV news said he was on a ventilator.



Some news says he isn't on a ventilator and other sources say he is.

I read his condition is stabilizing.

poor man... I feel sick when I hear people report their condition.



The was an elderly Aus man who lost his wife on catching the virus on a cruise ship... They caught it on the cruise ship but came back and self quarantined at home in country New South Wales... She died, he lived. He said she was the love of his life... He heartbreak was raw and we all felt for him. Sad.

Wow,... from having a mild case and being able to run the country, to hospitalization for observation, to ICU with a little oxygen, to stabilization, then to almost over it.



I wonder if they're giving him AIDS drugs. We wouldn't know if they were because there would be a run on them.



I'm sorry, I'm not buying it just yet.
