Rudy Giuliani ‘feeling good’, in hospital after positive Covid-19 test
- US president’s lawyer has been travelling across the country as he leads a legal push to challenge the election results
- ‘Get better soon Rudy, we will carry on!!!’ Trump says on Twitter
Rudy Giuliani became the latest member of US President Donald Trump’s circle to test positive for coronavirus, the commander in chief announced on Sunday, and the former New York mayor stated that he’s doing well.
“Thank you to all my friends and followers for all the prayers and kind wishes. I’m getting great care and feeling good,” Giuliani tweeted Sunday night. “Recovering quickly and keeping up with everything.”
The 76-year-old was exhibiting some symptoms and was admitted Sunday to Georgetown University Medical Centre in Washington, Associated Press reported, citing an unnamed source.
It was not immediately known whether he had shown virus symptoms or what his plans for a possible quarantine were.
He was doing fine as of Sunday evening, according to his son Andrew Giuliani.
“My Dad @RudyGiuliani is resting, getting great care and feeling well,” tweeted the younger Giuliani, an aide to Trump. “Thank you to all the friends who have reached out concerned about his well being.”
While both Giuliani and Trump are known for nearly non-stop shocking statements, the president’s announcement earlier Sunday floored the country.
