Chequers is the official country residence of British prime ministers.
“On the advice of his medical team, the PM, Boris Johnson will not be immediately returning to work. He wishes to thank everybody at St Thomas’ for the brilliant care he has received. All of his thoughts are with those affected by this illness.”
The prime minister’s fiancee, Carrie Symonds, who is expecting a baby, said on Twitter: “Thank you also to everyone who sent such kind messages of support. Today I’m feeling incredibly lucky.

Mr. Johnson, 55, was taken to St Thomas’ hospital, in London, on Sunday, April – ten days after testing positive for the Coronavirus as his symptoms, including cough and high temperature, persisted. He stayed three nights in intensive care before returning to a ward on Thursday.
