Both Boris Johnson and Health Secretary Matt Hancock dramatically announced they are suffering from coronavirus today - threatening to send the government's response into chaos.

The Prime Minister said he had tested positive for the disease, after developing a temperature and cough yesterday afternoon, and being advised by Chief Medical Officer Chris Whitty to get checked.

The 55-year-old insisted he only has 'mild' symptoms', and will be continuing to lead the national response over video-conference. The PM will stay in his flat in No11 - from where he chaired a meeting of the 'war Cabinet' this morning - and aides will leave meals and work outside the door.

And within hours Mr Hancock had revealed he also has the virus. 'I've tested positive. Thankfully my symptoms are mild and I'm working from home & self-isolating,' he tweeted.
