Boris Johnson could be given up to four litres of oxygen and specialist breathing aids as he battles coronavirus in intensive care.

The Prime Minister could be given specialist medical support tailored to fight the virus- such as the aid known as continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) - as he fights the virus in London's St Thomas' Hospital.
