The Prime Minister has been taken into intensive care while in hospital.
Boris Johnson had spent the last day in hospital as a precaution after still showing symptoms of coronavirus 10 days after testing positive for the disease.
Mr Johnson has asked Foreign Secretary Dominic Raab to deputise for him, a Downing Street spokesman said, as the prime minister's symptoms have worsened.
