Giuliani says he has chosen not to be vaccinated but that he told debate organizers he would take multiple tests leading up to and on the day of the debate.
Republican New York gubernatorial candidate Andrew Giuliani said he has been barred from an upcoming primary debate because he has refused to submit proof he’s been vaccinated against COVID-19.
At a news conference Sunday outside the offices of CBS-TV, which is televising the debate Monday night, the son of former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani said he has chosen not to be vaccinated but that he told debate organizers he would take multiple tests leading up to and on the day of the debate. Giuliani said he was told initially that he only needed to take a test on the day of the debate, then was told he had to show proof of vaccination.
“I told them I would not do that,” he said. “I don’t think that's something that even someone who has chosen to get the shot should have to do, from a constitutional standpoint.”
