Rudy Giuliani Recovering From Pneumonia, Off Ventilator but Still Critical

A 9/11-related airway condition worsened his illness.

Overview

  • Giuliani, 81, remains in a Florida hospital in critical but stable condition after a Sunday admission for pneumonia.
  • His spokesperson said he required mechanical ventilation to stabilize oxygen levels and was breathing on his own by Monday.
  • The case was complicated by restrictive airway disease that his team links to Ground Zero dust exposure, which can reduce lung capacity and raise risks from infections like pneumonia.
  • The hospital has been reported as Good Samaritan Medical Center in West Palm Beach, though officials have not confirmed operational details.
  • He coughed on his online show Friday, and after the hospitalization President Donald Trump and New York leaders posted well-wishes as coverage also revisited his recent legal troubles.
