COVID-19/RUDY GIULIANI/TRUMP PEOPLE: Rudolph W. Giuliani, the latest member of President Trump’s inner circle to contract Covid-19, has acknowledged that he received at least two of the same drugs the president received. He even conceded that his ‘celebrity’ status had given him access to care that others did not have.

‘If it wasn’t me, I wouldn’t have been put in a hospital frankly,’ Mr. Giuliani, the president’s personal lawyer, told WABC radio in New York. ‘Sometimes when you’re a celebrity, they’re worried if something happens to you they’re going to examine it more carefully, and do everything right.’”
