Boris Johnson was so ill with Covid that he 'could not walk up the stairs to the flat' in Downing Street and was rushed to hospital in a wheelchair, his ex-director of communications has revealed.
slowly became "groggier and groggier" before the Chief Medical Officer Chris Whitty urged him to get tested in March 2020.
"He got to the point where he literally could not walk up the stairs to the flat in No. 11. So he moved into what was until then a sort of suite of offices for the Chancellor in No.10 on the ground floor," Mr Harri said. Mr Harri also revealed that at the time, No 10 tried - "understandably" - to play Boris' Covid battle down, but in reality, "He was pretty ill and deteriorating".
According to Mr Harri, Mr Johnson's Covid battle was a "critical moment" inside No 10, adding that "no one really knew how this would play out" or "how long he'd be away".
