Shivering, hallucinating, beaten 'like a piñata': Chris Cuomo's 'haunted' night with coronavirus

When the sun came up Wednesday morning, CNN anchor Chris Cuomo was already awake. But as Cuomo tells it, his early rising wasn't by choice.

"I was up all night," he said during Wednesday's edition of "Cuomo Prime Time," broadcast live from his basement where he is now self-quarantining after announcing one day earlier that he tested positive for the novel coronavirus.

The cause of Cuomo's insomnia?

"This virus came at me, I've never seen anything like it," Cuomo said, telling viewers that he was racked with a fever of around 103 degrees "that wouldn't quit."

"It was like somebody was beating me like a piñata," he continued. "I was shivering so much . . . I chipped my tooth."

Then, there were the fever-induced hallucinations.

"My dad was talking to me," a wide-eyed Cuomo said, referring to his late father, former New York governor and revered Democratic Party figure Mario Cuomo, who died in January 2015. "I was seeing people from college, people I haven't seen in forever. It was freaky what I lived through last night, and it may happen again tonight."

For the second night in a row, Cuomo, 49, who has repeatedly said that he refuses to be sidelined by the virus, merged his personal experience with news coverage of the global pandemic in an effort to drive home the seriousness of the outbreak. During Wednesday's show, the anchor provided viewers with a firsthand account of what coronavirus symptoms may feel like, while also interviewing guests such as CNN chief medical correspondent Sanjay Gupta, New Jersey Democratic Gov. Phil Murphy and the loved ones of a New Jersey emergency room doctor who recently died after treating covid-19 patients.

Poor little Fredo there are recovered 80 year olds that haven’t experienced symptoms like that nor complained as much

“First time I’ve heard about anyone hallucinating. A little drama never hurts the Dems....Like Hillary ducking....”

If you’ve been sailing on Denial for life would an hallucination bring you back to reality?

I am sorry to hear that he is ill — truly I am — and I suppose it’s a good sign that his bout with the flu has not affected his driving need for public attention.

“Is he really sick with the virus?” Probably ate at Olive Garden.

Yeah. Now we know the origin of the toilet paper crisis.

Except those aren’t hallucinations. They’re in his memory bank and he’s bringing them up.

"Fredo."

"Yes Dad."

"You know why like you said yesterday, I wasn't home much for you and Andy?"

"Yes Dad."

"It was because ... you both suck."

"Yes Dad."

His hallucinations are not from Covid. They are from HCQ.

Fredo is making himself ‘the news’, the story. It’s what the Left does.
