and at mark meadows for not letting people know so they could protect themselves to a greater degree...instead meadows kept it for his book and christie spent a week, very unwell, in hospital
https://www.businessinsider.com/chr...r-covid-diagnosis-blasts-mark-meadows-2021-12Instead of conducting a new COVID-19 test, officials simply ran the same sample through another testing device — not a proper procedure for COVID-19 testing — and got a negative result, the Washington Post reported.
Christie added that while he had always "suspected" that Trump had given him COVID, the new revelations from Meadows' book made it "undeniable."
"I was playing Joe Biden, I was siting right across from him..we had some very spirited disagreements during the debate prep, so saliva was flying back and forth between us," Christie said of the debate prep sessions, adding that he knows he didn't give the virus to Trump because he was tested every day.
As Christie noted, six of the seven participants in the debate prep sessions, including White House aides Hope Hicks, Bill Stepien, Kellyanne Conway, and Stephen Miller, tested positive for the virus.
In his own recently-published memoir, Christie wrote that Trump called him when they were both in the hospital (Christie in New Jersey and Trump at Walter Reed National Medical Military Center) to make sure Christie wouldn't publicly blame him for his own illness.
