He's Baaaack: Rudy mocks contact tracing for COVID-19, then says we need contact tracing for obesity [View all]



Former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani appeared on Fox News’ The Ingraham Angle on Thursday night, and, along with its host, mocked New York Governor Andrew Cuomo’s ambitious plan to identify and isolate possible Covid-19 infections in an attempt to slowly reopen the state’s economy.

<...>

....he then brusquely dismissed the plan announced by Cuomo in partnership with former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg, to hire 10,000 contact tracers for coronavirus containment before any widespread restart of the state’s businesses.

<...>

....he suggested massive contact tracing for several other health issues...

“We should trace a provider for cancer and heart disease and obesity and — I mean, a lot of things kill you more than Covid-19,” Giuliani said. “So we should be traced for all those things. Because life is a certain degree of risk and we have to be willing to live with it.”
