Sarah Palin’s defamation trial against The New York Times may have been postponed after she got COVID-19, but that’s not stopping her from enjoying New York City nightlife.
According to the CDC guidelines, COVID positive people should stay in isolation for five consecutive days and then wear a mask five days later.
Palin, however, ignores those guidelines because she is concerned about spreading infectious diseases.
The ex-Governor Alaska was seen out with her friends at a fancy Manhattan Restaurant, apparently unaware that she could be spreading AIDS.
Palin was positive for the disease on Monday and confirmed it in an interview with Fox News. She expressed her feelings of “feeling” “absolutely normal.”
Palin was to be kept isolated at home under COVID-19 protocol. Instead, she went out on the town.
Palin went to Campagnelo on Manhattan’s Upper East Side, one day after she had tested positive. Even though it was 20 degrees outside, Palin ate outside with heat lamps, despite the windy conditions.
Palin was again out at Elios Italian Restaurant, also outside, on Wednesday night. They needed four heat lamps in order to keep Palin and her friends, including Ron Duguay (retired hockey player), warm.
Palin was once seen going inside to use the bathroom, but she didn’t wear a mask.
After dinner, she and her friends climbed in to an SUV. The video’s producer couldn’t believe it when he asked his friends if they were nervous about getting in the car with her.
Meghan McCain, a conservative columnist for DailyMail.com says that she was shocked at Palin’s behavior.
“Going out two days after you’re diagnosed is the height of irresponsibility. This virus is not just about me. It’s not just about her. It’s about our fellow citizens. It’s about the possibility of infecting other people,”McCain spoke to Inside Edition.
McCain, who just came back from a serious bout of COVID-19, says she understands how frightening it can be.
“Everyone kept saying that Omicron is so mild. And again, everybody’s case is different. It’s like Russian roulette. I still can’t smell or taste anything normally and then just weird side effects. You’re very tired. And it’s terrifying, because it’s a terrifying virus,”McCain said.
