Boris Johnson should have taken his own medicine - The British prime minister tested positive
for Covid-19 and went into isolation, but not before
doing untold damage and setting a bad example.

Boris Johnson, the prime minister of Britain, on
Friday announced that he had tested positive for the
coronavirus. In a brief video released on Twitter, he
shared the basics: Having developed “mild
symptoms — that’s to say, a temperature and a
persistent cough” — he underwent testing and
received the bad news. He will now be “selfisolating” until the illness has run its course.
Looking mostly healthy, if typically
disheveled, Mr. Johnson stressed that he would
continue to “lead the national fightback” from his
home via teleconferencing. He urged the British
public to abide by the three-week lockdown put into
place on Monday.
The more effectively people stick with social
distancing, the faster the nation and its National
Health Service (N.H.S.) will “bounce back,” he said, before closing with the plea, “Stay at home, protect
the N.H.S and save lives.” It was a responsible, no- drama message. If only the prime minister had
displayed such leadership sooner, he — and who
knows how many others — might have been spared
this illness.
