US Republican Chris Christie, who may have contracted the new corona virus in the White House and was seriously ill, has admitted mistakes in dealing with the virus. During his seven days in intensive care, he had time to think, Christie told the New York Times.
It was a mistake, among other things, not to have worn a mask at an event in the White House, with Amy Coney Barrett, who wants to appeal to the Republicans before the Supreme Court, in late September. He assumed he was in a “safe zone” there. “I was wrong.”
“It is something to take very seriously”
Christie’s infection was known after that of the president of the United States, Donald Trump, in early October. He had previously also helped Trump prepare for the television debate against Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden. After the debate and the White House event, several people around the president tested positive.
Christie, a former New Jersey governor, cautioned against taking the virus lightly. “This is something to be taken very seriously,” he said, calling on people in public office to campaign for Americans to wear masks in public, maintain social distance and wash their hands frequently. “No one should be happy to contract the virus and no one should be proud of being infected or infecting others.”
After his Covid 19 illness, the President of the United States declared himself immune, calling his illness “God’s blessing.” Because as a result, Trump explained in a video, he became aware of the antibody treatment. “I call it a cure,” said Trump, who in addition to medications that were not available to ordinary citizens, also had several top-notch doctors around the clock. He announced that all Americans should be treated the same as him.
