3/22/2020 Harvey Weinstein Reportedly Tests Positive for Coronavirus
Harvey Weinstein has been placed in isolation at New York’s Wende Correctional Facility after
testing positive for coronavirus, according to a report from CNHI newspapers, published in
the Niagara Gazette. “O cials connected to the state prison system” told the outlet that
Weinstein, currently serving a -year prison sentence for rape and sexual assault, may have
been infected when he transferred from New York City’s Rikers Island jail on Wednesday.
Michael Powers, president of the New York State Correctional O cers and Police Benevolent
Association, declined CNHI’s request for comment, citing privacy rules. Still, he did
acknowledge that “there is no better breeding ground for this virus than a closed environment
such as a correctional facility.” And indeed, as of Wednesday, Rikers had con rmed a total of
COVID- diagnoses among inmates and corrections o cers. According to the CNHI
report, the disgraced movie mogul, , is one of two Wende inmates to test positive for the
virus.
In late February, after deliberating for almost hours, a Manhattan jury found Weinstein
guilty of committing a criminal sexual act in the rst degree and rape in the third degree.
Although at least women have publicly accused the lm producer of sexual misconduct,
only six of his accusers testi ed at trial. Shortly after it ended, he underwent heart surgery at
Bellevue Hospital.
Weinstein was sentenced two weeks after the jury delivered its verdict, and quickly returned to
Bellevue over “ongoing heart problems and chest pains,” his camp told Deadline in mid-
March. Asked on Sunday about Weinstein’s alleged coronavirus diagnosis, his spokesperson,
Juda Engelmayer, told the Daily Beast that “our team… has not heard anything like that yet.”
