Apparently boris has the virus on 11:58 - Mar 27 by GlasgowBlue
This is nonsense. He's literally responsible for running the country & meets with the Cabinet, health officers, police chiefs delivering the response to the pandemic. It's just logical to test him. There is simply no debate.

He is supposed to be 'responsible' but hasn't been, for years, has he? Now he's being upstaged by his Chancellor

It is to those who hate the Tories, they're probably very pleased he's got it.
Party politics are irrelevant. If someone takes pleasure in another human being taken ill, then that displays their true nature to everyone. One thing this crisis has done, is unmask the vile attitudes in much of our society.

Interesting that both him AND Matt Hancock have to go into isolation as the whole 'we didn't want ventilators from the EU because we've got blue passports' thing breaks.
I'm one of the people who was blamed for getting Paul Cook sacked. PM for the full post.

I wish him a period of self-isolation of the appropriate length, and with the optimal outcome.
what length isolation and what outcome?
Assumption is to make an ass out of you and me.
Those who assume they know you, when they don't are just guessing.
Those who assume and insist they know are daft and in denial.
Those who assume, insist, and deny the truth are plain stupid.
Those who assume, insist, deny the truth and tell YOU they know you (when they don't) have an IQ in the range of 35-49.

The UK did over 40,000 tests in the 7 days up to 9am yesterday (nearly 8,000 in the final 24 hours). That's just on patients. Gives some idea of the numbers needed to do staff as well.
Also, as the test currently used is only a snapshot of whether someone has the disease at that moment (but not if they'd had it and recovered), how often would tests for staff have to be conducted?
Germany are knocking out about 500,000 lab tests a week. That’s the level we need to be at imo to get a better understanding of the progression of the virus to help inform the medical response. We’d be able to screen our front line staff at that level too.
