Former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani returns to hosting his eponymous talk show after a hospitalization earlier this month for viral pneumonia. Multiple outlets report that Giuliani resumed his show on Wednesday evening, marking his first on-air appearance since the medical episode.
The reports say Giuliani had been hospitalized in critical condition due to viral pneumonia earlier in the month. After treatment and recovery, he appears back on his program and speaks about his health. The Hill reports that Giuliani tells viewers it is “very nice to be back,” and says he is “in the middle of making a very, very full and complete recovery.”
While outlets differ slightly in wording—some describe the hospitalization as “critical condition” and others focus on the return itself—they broadly agree on the sequence of events: hospitalization for viral pneumonia, followed by a return to his show on Wednesday. No additional details about the course of treatment or next medical steps are included in the provided summaries.
