Harvey Weinstein moved from Rikers Island to hospital for emergency heart surgery

Quote:
Harvey Weinstein had heart surgery Monday after he complained of health issues and was moved from a New York City jail to a local hospital, a representative for the disgraced movie mogul said.

Weinstein, whose 2020 rape conviction was overturned earlier this year, is in the ICU at Bellvue Hospital and awaiting further test results and details from doctors, the representative, Craig Rothfeld, said.

Weinstein, 72, was moved from Rikers Island to the hospital after complaining that he didn’t feel well and had experienced significant weight gain from medication, Rothfeld said.

He underwent the procedure Monday morning to alleviate a significant amount of fluid from his lungs and heart, Rothfeld said.

In July, Weinstein was hospitalized for a “myriad of health conditions” and tested positive for Covid-19 and double pneumonia, his representative said.

At that time, Weinstein was taken to the hospital to be treated for the “conditions that he is still afflicted with on a daily basis such as diabetes, high blood pressure, spinal stenosis, fluid on his heart and lungs, and various other conditions,” his representative said earlier this summer.

Do they make micro-manipulators small enough for Weinstein's heart?
