Event Overview
Giuliani recovering from pneumonia and 'now breathing on his own'
Rudy Giuliani is reported to be recovering from pneumonia and to be breathing on his own, with statements from his spokesman indicating he remains in critical but stable condition at a Florida hospital. The Guardian US and BBC News both relay that he is off the ventilator and monitored as a precaution, noting his preexisting history of restrictive airway disease linked to 9/11. Fox News adds a separate, non-medical tease about past jokes, which does not address his current medical status. Disagreements center on wording of condition and whether he is still on respiratory support; sources concur that he is breathing independently.
The statements confirm a potential shift in Giuliani’s medical trajectory from critical condition toward stabilization, with reporting from Guardian US and BBC News indicating independence from ventilation and ongoing monitoring at a Florida hospital.
