Rudy Giuliani hospitalised in ‘critical but stable’ condition

Spokesperson calls former New York City mayor ‘a fighter’ but does not say cause of his hospitalization Rudy Giuliani, former mayor of New York City, has been hospitalised and is in a “critical but stable condition”, his spokesperson said on Sunday evening. Ted Goodman, the spokesperson, posted on social media: “Mayor Giuliani is a fighter who has faced every challenge in his life with unwavering strength, and he’s fighting with that same level of strength as we speak. We do ask that you join us in prayer for America’s Mayor Rudy Giuliani.” It is unclear why Giuliani, 81, is in hospital or how long he has been there. Giuliani hosted his online show, “America’s Mayor Live”, on Friday night from Florida, but said his voice was “a little under the weather”. Giuliani garnered acclaim for his response to the 11 September 2001 al-Qaida attack on New York City, earning the nickname “America’s mayor”.
