Harvey Weinstein hospitalized with Covid, double pneumonia
Harvey Weinstein is dealing with a host of health problems in a prison hospital… including the coronavirus and pneumonia.
Weinstein has been transferred to the Bellevue Hospital Prison Ward in Manhattan, where he is being treated for diabetes, high blood pressure, spinal stenosis and other conditions… his representative, Judah Engelmayerconfirmed to TMZ.
Weinstein’s camp says he has also tested positive for COVID-19 and double pneumonia. The health update was first reported on Thursday by NBC News.
As we reported…Weinstein is awaiting a new trial in his rape case in New York after his conviction was quashed in spring.
Meanwhile, his legal team is also trying to overturn a separate rape conviction in California – last month he has filed a new appeal.
Weinstein has maintained his innocence throughout his highly publicized trials.
This is the second time in three months that the disgraced movie mogul has been hospitalized in Bellevue. He went there for tests in April, when one of his lawyers told us that Weinstein’s health was poor bit of a ‘train wreck’.
