Whitty has worked closely with British Prime Minister Boris Johnson, who said earlier on Friday he had been diagnosed with coronavirus.

Whitty, a 53-year-old consultant physician and epidemiologist, has appeared alongside Johnson at the government's daily briefings on the crisis.
"I will be continuing to advise the government on the medical response to Coronavirus, supported by my deputies," he said on Twitter.
