RUDY Giuliani has insisted that “you can overdo” face masks as he remains hospitalized with coronavirus and awaits his release after taking the drug Remdesivir.
Donald Trump‘s personal lawyer called into his own radio show from the hospital on Tuesday to update listeners on his current bill of health.
“Pretty much all the symptoms are gone now,” the attorney said, saying that he’s “doing fine” and is taking the drug Remdesivir, the same experimental drug Trump took during his own battle with Covid in October.
Giuliani revealed that he’ll be released from George Washington University hospital on Wednesday in Washington DC, three days after he tested positive for the virus.
But the lawyer eschewed mask-wearing even as he lay in his hospital bed recovering from the virus, saying he still doesn’t believe in mandates to enforce wearing them.
“I think you can overdo the masks, you can overdo almost anything,” he said.
He continued: “Everything done in moderation makes much more sense. And what we’re doing to American business right now is disgraceful, and it’s not based on science.”
On Monday, Trump said the former New York City mayor is “doing very well” and has “no temperature”. The president added: “He’s a champion.”
However, NBC News reporter Monica Alba claimed that Giuliani is “experiencing mild symptoms.”
The updates came after Giuliani tweeted on Sunday night: “I’m getting great care and feeling good. Recovering quickly and keeping up with everything.”
His most recent meeting was a December 2 public hearing at Michigan’s House Oversight Committee where Giuliani presented alleged witnesses to voter fraud, despite the lack of evidence proving there was fraud in any scale in the election.
The Trump team, in an effort to dissuade fears that “America’s mayor” may have been a super spreader, released a statement claiming the contrary.
“Mayor Giuliani tested twice negatively immediately preceding his trip to Arizona, Michigan, and Georgia,” the statement said. “The mayor did not experience any symptoms or test positive for COVID-19 until more than 48 hours after his return.”
“No legislators in any state or members of the press are on the contact tracing list, under current CDC guidelines,” it continued.
“Other team members who are defined as having had close contact will be following their physicians’ directives and CDC guidelines on isolation and testing.”
During the radio interview on Tuesday, Giuliani was also questioned about fellow attorney Jenna Ellis’ reported Covid diagnosis.
Ellis informed her associates on Tuesday that she tested positive for the deadly disease, sources told Axios.
Ellis attended court hearings in Michigan where she sat next to Giuliani.
Her diagnosis spread fear throughout the West Wing as it was revealed that Ellis attended a senior staff Christmas party on Friday.
Ellis was a guest of adviser Peter Navarro and was not wearing a mask, sources told the outlet.
“People brought their families,” one senior White House official told Axios.
The event was held indoors in the building’s East Wing.
However, Giuliani insisted that Ellis tested negative for the virus “I think the next day” and said “she didn’t necessarily have it at the party.”
