Dominic Cummings self-isolating with symptoms

Dominic Cummings, the prime minister’s chief adviser, is self-isolating after developing symptoms in line with those of Covid-19 over the weekend, a Downing Street source has confirmed to the PA news agency.

They added that Cummings would remain in contact with his colleagues at No 10 during his quarantine period.

On Friday, Cummings was seen running out of Downing Street shortly after Boris Johnson announced he had tested positive for the virus.


Clearly didn't run fast enough.

Dominic Cummings has developed symptoms of coronavirus over the weekend and is now self-isolating, a source has confirmed.

Boris Johnson’s key adviser, last seen running through Downing Street two days ago, is believed to have experienced mild symptoms including a cough.

The prime minister and the health secretary Matt Hancock are already self-isolating after developing symptoms towards the end of last week.

A Whitehall source confirmed a report by the Daily Mail’s Jason Groves that he is still communicating with Number 10.

Last week, Downing Street rejected as “a highly defamatory fabrication” a claim that Cummings initially argued against strict measures to contain coronavirus in a view summarised as “if that means some pensioners die, too bad”.

The claim, initially made in the Sunday Times, said that at one private event at the end of February, Cummings outlined then government’s strategy at the time in a way that was summarised by some present as “herd immunity, protect the economy, and if that means some pensioners die, too bad.”

Johnson tested positive on Friday for coronavirus and is self-isolating in Downing Street.

He said he had experienced mild symptoms over the past 24 hours, including a temperature and cough, but continues to lead the government.

Hancock said he had also tested positive while England’s Chief Medical Officer, Prof Chris Whitty, has shown symptoms.

WTF was happening to spread it round Downing Street? The Prime Minister, Health Secretary, Chief Medical Officer, now #ClassicDom. Was Boris licking the Cabinet table?

They should give Dom a test, that would get the marxists properly triggered.

It's extremely contagious, no surprise he's got it. Just look at that cruise ship that pretty quickly had > 600 people infected. Newspaper story yesterday that 17 people who went to a funeral all now have it.

Got to love how cummunings winds lefties and especially remoaners up though. The belief he's some sort of antichrist, says more about them than him..

As Dom is slowly and meticulously eviscerating these types, JC, like pulling the legs off a spider one by one. No doubt covid 19 has stalled things, and they are desperately trying to use the crisis as a vehicle to turn the tide, but he is merely being temporarily stalled.

The claim...at one private event...Cummings outlined... at the time... in a way...that was summarised....by some present as...”too bad”.

I think we have all the evidence we need for a conviction right there.

That 159 is England only + 6 Scotland + 14 Wales + 1 Northern Ireland = 180
Combined figure will likely differ slightly
