The president and his team have been criticised for shunning safety guidance. Trump was ill in October.
Giuliani, 76, was admitted to the Medstar Georgetown University Hospital in Washington DC on Sunday, according to US media reports. In a tweet, the former New York mayor thanked well-wishers for their messages, and said he was “recovering quickly”.
