Boris Johnson's senior adviser recovers from coronavirus

14 April 2020 18:33 (UTC +04:00)

Boris Johnson’s senior adviser Dominic Cummings has returned to work at Downing Street after showing symptoms of the coronavirus over a fortnight ago, APA reports citing the Independent.

Mr Cummings, a key member of the prime minister’s inner circle, was photographed walking into No 10 on Tuesday morning, alongside another adviser, Cleo Watson.

Before he began self isolating, he was spotted racing away from Downing Street on 27 March – just hours after news broke that the prime minister had tested positive for covid-19.

Asked whether Mr Cummings was back at work, the prime minister’s spokesman said on Tuesday: “Correct. Yes, he has back in Number 10 working today”.
