Prime Minister Boris Johnson said he owes his life to the staff of Britain's state-run National Health Service, in his first comments since being released from intensive care for treatment for COVID-19.

Johnson, 55, was taken to St Thomas’s Hospital in central London a week ago, suffering from persistent symptoms of the disease caused by the new coronavirus. On April 6 he was moved into intensive care, where he remained until April 9. Johnson was back on his feet by Friday, taking short walks between periods of rest, in what his office described as the early stage of recovery.

It’s fake data

Welcome back PM.

Happy he is better

Share your Covid-19 experience to all your citizens, it might be necessary, given the rate at which the virus is spreading in UK.

Now make sure you don’t sell the NHS to US

Sure, somehow He makes it

I believe it’s pretty obvious that he owes medics his life. I doubt anyone would dispute this.

realDonaldTrump WhiteHouse 10DowningStreet UKIP NeilUKIP What doesn't kill us makes us stronger. Congratulations P.M. Johnson, you are now stronger than ever. Now INVESTIGE THOROGHLY, then go after the agendas of the perpetrators WHO made you ill w/their biological warfare.

LennaLeprena 🤦🏽‍♀️

Will Boris Johnson still go ahead & implement the Tory Policy of the PRIVATISATION of the NHS ?

Let’s hope Boris rememberers this and makes sure our NHS is looked after properly in future

Finally he seems to take it serious. Stop shaking hands now maybe

How. The. Tables. Have. Turned.

I'm glad PM Boris Johnson survived the ChiCom Virus. I'm glad every one who suffered and lived does. Happy Easter! ☀️

Ya think BorisJohnson? Rethinking that hand shaking thing? How about STOP being an a*s! You nearly left your child fatherless! I think you owe your people a HUGE apology! Many died because of your selfishness!

Labour stuffed the nhs with this

Now here is a death toll, want to report on this.

This conservative man is tough and I am sure those liberals don’t like it..

The ' leader' of the Tory party that has been slowly privatising the people's NHS by stealth for 40yrs ? And NOW he loves the NHS ? He'll get out and carry on breaking it up and selling it off even faster !

So Johnson's brother feels his treatment initially was substandard. What a fool. These people save lives. No matter whos life. Shut the hell up. At least Johnson himself is grateful.

Johnson is a criminal who slaughter the people in UK with Herd immunity Policy

He has free hairdressing, he likes what he looks like, seriously ... what his advisers do.🧐

How bout all those hands he shook?

So this fellow cannot feel anything, which won't affect him personally? Great Britain You have shafted yourself royally!

After the way he and his ilk have destroyed the NHS he should pay for his treatment then when he gets back to no 10 cancel student and work related debt then give them a wage they deserve then beg their forgiveness before sodding off

His complacency nearly killed him, has already killed thousands and many more to come. Many thousands could have been saved if he'd acted sooner and got things in place, but he delayed and prevaricated at every step, and didn't even take basic hygiene precautions himself.

His laissez-faire attitude was what helped him get the virus. It is the reason others got the virus. PEOPLE DIED because of PM Johnson and they didn't have to. He survived with blood on his hands. I don't know how he can live with that but I suspect it doesn't bother him at all.

He is dead

I’m glad he’s on the mend. I want him back fast using THAT experience and gratitude to do a better job than is being done.

Imagine how scary the death toll would be if they counted deaths in nursing homes like the Irish have done? About 50% of the reported Irish coronavirus deaths have occurred in nursing homes, yet the UK doesn’t count them!

Herd immunity, um....herd stupidity?

Next week he will fire them

5 minutes later, We must privatise the NHS...

What? Not hydroxychloriquine?

He also owns them 350m per week. Just sayin’

I think he is next. Every soul shall taste death.

Too bad no one else in UK will get or has gotten good care.

Maybe he shouldn't have kept petitioning to defund the NHS and cap salaries...?

I think more people would survive if they were treated as such and not as invading microbes.

May he get well soon.

Coronavirus Psyop explained here...

i'm sure they'll now get an immediate need in fundin- hehehehe. yeah, i can't end that sentence without laughing cynically, too.

Even the picaninnies, bank robbers, letterboxes and bum boys?

Then fund them better!!!!!!!

NHS is the best

In America history u always remember like a i can't 💀 say but u understand much better

Thanks Lord

sdlizlifestyle

To quote Saving Private Ryan - “Earn this” BorisJohnson

They will appreciate it when you sell the NHS to the Americans...

They certainly did an amazing job but now don’t be so quick to resume work, it’s a tricky virus. Take it easy until May 1st at least.

thismomentonly Oh the savage irony!

“I owe them my life'” Narrator: “.....on the top of the 350 million per week”

Yes you do.

Good no you mate. Keep smiling and thank all the NAMELESS PEOPLE who worked to make you well.

Dammit!

You also owe them an apology for the past 10 years mate and maybe you can explain why you clapped and cheered when you voted down a nurses pay rise and by the way you a bloody hypocrite

One wonders what percentage of the medics and carers that tended to him were immigrants.

Nothing to see here people, keep walking!!

Who needs Hard Immunity? Raise your hand people 🖐️

Damn it This COVID failed us

What is that the same man who wanted to get rid of the NHS last year you two faced prick honestly no back bone atall

Your the same man who laughed at Muslim women looking like letter boxes. Now the whole world is dressing like a letter box including Boris the idiot

He has been at number 10 the whole time. It’s just a way for next election to praise the nhs

Matt Hancock received £32,000 in donations from chair of think tank that wants NHS 'abolished'

Congratulations God bless you happy Eastern best wishes to you be successful in all walks of life

They made sure to see if there were underlying conditions in order to not force the pumping of healthy lungs. That's great healthcare and status for you.

now He will All the time tell how good NHS for the 5% richest is?

Yes so now pay them properly please

Let hope now he will do the right thing and fund the NHS and give raise pay to the NHS staff

We are going to see how much that is in a monetary amount now, I'd expect.

Now you save them right back.

BorisJohnson, if you owe your life to our Heroes, can only imagine if you can save those millions of women and children living in Camps throughout the world. Tough Ask, I know you will find a way to do it. May 'God' bless you, family, the UK and the World.

Hope he starts funding it now...

Please lift sanctions against Iran This makes the situation more critical COVID__19 Iran

Then pay them better.

RELIABLE SOURCES SAY THAT IT SEEMS HE NEVER HAD COVID-19,HE HAD SAME SYMPTOMS BUT IT WAS COLD AND FLU,

God bless 🙏💙

Prove it numb nuts

See his face. The man saw hell

Does this mean Boris will not seek to strike a deal with his big orange buddy trump on selling out the NHS to the US?😏

Get NHS done! Staffing, resources and supply chain.

FUND NHS for the people for the nation...

I'm glad you are feeling better Boris but....

Remember this, when it comes to funding.

Quick recovery Sir your people needs

And now,provide all the measures to ensure their safety!!More PPEs is a starter!

A leader who knows how to be grateful. Like it.

May all get treated the same.

Privatizatn doesn't work where service is d motivating factor more than profit-capitalism,premised on surplus gain,not a panacea fr all ills

10DowningStreet UKGovernment absolutely has to fix the PPE situation now before more lives are lost or face a legacy that makes the polltax look like a minor political blip. NHSheroes NHSCovidHeroes PPEforNHS PPEshortage PPEShortages

May God bless you with long and healthy life Hon'ble Prime Minister Sir for your nation and also for the entire world.

Make sure you fire them when you are feeling completely better, not too soon....or at least cut their benefits etc.....will be good payback you bozo

Johnson owe UK’s people, his failure response

No no no, you just fully filled your herd immense policy, nothing to rescue.

Bet most of them are from the EU

I thank God, you are now well, again....

NO, you owe UK people their life

You owe them an apology.

Will he and the conservatives cut the NHS cut its funding next year?

No, you owe them proper funding, equipment and an end to the lies

I want this quote saved for when he sells out the NHS to America for a trade deal.

Promise? Step up, dude. I’ll be waiting.

Glad he's got better!

This is just stupid. Health care staff save lives everyday year round, pandemy or no pandemy.

no offense , and because this guy is the likeable version of Trump, but still just as dumb, does he wonder how many he infected by shaking hands The virus is very easily spread way before any symptoms show.

Lie... :)

There was already an outstanding debt.

thats so sweet he got the help. so sad that others didnt because hospitals didnt take in lesser ill patients but some of those then still died at home.

ACTIONS SPEAKS LOUDER THEN WORDS BorisJohnson people in the NHS are dying from the lack of PPEs promised by you weeks ago!!!!

And china owes the whole world!

'... which is what will make these incipient NHS cuts so awkward,' Johnson went on to say.
