I read earlier today that he still had a temperature (10 days into symptoms developing)... That is an awful long time to be running a fever.

It doesn't necessarily mean he's in ICU or severe condition, they may just be taking precautions incase he develops pneumonia. Other politicians who have had it have been recovered within a week so to still be running a temp at 10 days is a concern.

one thing i know is that they won't be telling us the whole truth, and he wouldn't be in hospital unless he needed to be ... so many tests etc could be done where he is

He has been admitted to hospital

Sky had a specialist on earlier speculating that a high temp after 7 days (10 days in Boris’s case) can suggest secondary pneumonia

Anyone know if Sky had a specialist on earlier speculating that a high temp after 7 days (10 days in Boris’s case) can suggest secondary pneumonia?

You cast doubt over Sky News yet you happily quotes snippets from Twitter ..

It's not on me if you feel goaded as that was not the intention

He has potentially hindered his recovery by staying in charge of government... I was reading earlier about the links between sleep, adrenaline and fever. Basically when you have a fever, it tends to "break" when you're in a relaxed deep-sleep state and the process is held back by high adrenaline levels. Essentially if you don't let yourself relax when you're ill, the fever can fail to break, your immune system doesn't operate anywhere near full capacity, and that massively increases the risk of developing a secondary infection (like pneumonia). That's why they start to be concerned when people's temp is still up at 7 days. Ideally, if your immune system is doing its job, it should be down within 3 - 5 days.

Basically the stress and probably sleep deprivation that comes with being PM may well be part of what's stopped him from making a timely recovery.
