Boris Johnson heaped praise on our “unconquerable” NHS after leaving hospital following his coronavirus battle. The Prime Minister said there was “no question” it had saved his life after he contracted the deadly disease.
Appearing emotional in a video shortly after discharge, he admitted there had been 48 hours in which things “could have gone either way”.
