Rudy Giuliani Leaves Hospital After Exclusive COVID-19 Treatment

HeadlineDec 10, 2020

President Trump’s top campaign attorney Rudy Giuliani left Georgetown University Hospital in Washington Wednesday after four days of treatment for COVID-19. Giuliani told New York radio station WABC he received the same drugs President Trump got during his battle with the coronavirus in October. Giuliani’s special treatment followed similar care administered to Trump allies Chris Christie and Ben Carson — both of whom received experimental antibody therapies for severe cases of COVID-19. The drugs, produced by Eli Lilly and Regeneron, are in such short supply that many states and hospital systems have set up a lottery system to determine who will receive them.

Meanwhile, Jenna Ellis, another Trump campaign attorney, who worked in close contact with Giuliani, has tested positive for COVID-19.
