Kathy Griffin Blasts President Trump From Hospital Bed: "He's Lying" About Coronavirus Testing

Comedian Kathy Griffin has just fired back against President Donald Trump's recent claims on Twitter regarding the coronavirus pandemic and the United States' reaction towards it.

Information about the coronavirus pandemic is rapidly changing and Diply is committed to providing the most recent data as it becomes available. Some of the information in this story may have changed since publication, and we encourage readers to use online resources from CDC and WHO to stay up to date on the latest information surrounding COVID-19.

Kathy has been documenting her temperatures for weeks now.

She warned fans to stay home and practice social distancing.

"This may seem extreme to some of you. And I am not going on Information I’m gathering from Facebook and other social media, we are not leaving the house and my employees are not entering the house nor is anyone else for at least the next two weeks. In fact one of my full-time employees gets an entire floor of my house, as he is willing to be proactive in this way full-time night and day as well. In fact when we interact with him, we stand about 20 feet apart from each other. Trying to keep a sense of humor about that whole scene," she wrote.

On day two of social distancing, she shared that she was asymptomatic and "feeling fine".

She shared her temperature on day three, promising that she would keep fans updated every single day.

Sadly, Kathy lost her mother a few days later, and she stopped sharing her temperature.

Recently, President Trump took to Twitter to claim that the testing rates for COVID-19 were high.

The President tweeted that the United States has "done far more 'testing' than any other nation" in regards to the coronavirus pandemic, and added that the United States now does more testing in eight days than South Korea does in eight weeks.

Just over a week later, Kathy was hospitalized, and took to Instagram to call out the president for his latest tweet.

"The hospital couldn’t test me for #coronavirus because of CDC (Pence task force) restrictions," she revealed.

She shared two photos to her Instagram of her in a hospital room wearing a mask.

"‪He’s lying. I was sent to the #COVID19 isolation ward room in a major hospital ER from a separate urgent care facility after showing UNBEARABLY PAINFUL symptoms," she wrote.

Kathy's comments section was immediately filled with well-wishers hoping for a speedy recovery for Kathy's illness.

President Trump has yet to respond to Kathy's claims.

This isn't the first time Kathy and the President have had tension.

In 2017, Kathy infamously posed for a picture holding what was made to look like the severed head of Donald Trump, which many, including the President, found incredibly distasteful and inappropriate.
