Boris Johnson 'moaned Covid wasn't killing many people' weeks before second wave

Boris Johnson complained that Covid wasn't really 'killing many people' any more - just weeks before the deadly second wave of the virus, it has been claimed.

Mr Johnson is said to have written in a Whats App message: "If I were an 80-year-old and I was told that the choice was between destroying the economy and risking my exposure to a disease that I had a 94 per cent chance of surviving, I know what I would prefer."
