Those who Eric Adams secretly acted as mayor acted as mayor when Hezoner dealt with a mysterious illness. And he didn’t know New York City for a month, Post learned.
Adams confirmed Wednesday that he went under anesthesia for a medical test amid fears of health, and that Vice Mayor Maria Torres Springer temporarily took over the duties of mayor of the nation’s largest city. revealed.
However, the mayor mistakenly stated in his weekly press conference that the test took place last week. The narrative of confusion and shifts from city hall led to a shifting narrative about the illness that uncharacteristically locked him out of the public eye.
City Hall officials later announced that his office had limited schedules for medical examinations, on January 3rd, Adams was actually placed for a colonoscopy. He told the Post.
Mayor’s spokeswoman Kayla Mamelak added that Adams missed a poke to reporters he went down last week.
The secret transfer of power to Torres Springer raised questions about whether Adams violated the city’s charter rules regarding government continuity.
“We did everything we needed to do during the anesthesia period,” he said.
Adams retorted that he deserves his right to privacy in his health, but revealed that the illness contains “real pain” that requires a series of medical tests.
He slid what he was fully concerned about his health, as if he had a heartfelt heart with his son Jordan.
“It’s not that it scares me much, but I was worried,” he said.
Sources told the Post that Adams complained about the prolonged pain on his part.
The issue will cause doctors to perform colonoscopy in early January, with additional testing going on, officials said.
He attended President Trump’s inauguration in Washington, DC, when Adams was in pain awaiting the outcome.
City Hall officials said colonoscopy spurred more tests and increased the results of Adams urging a doctor’s order to rest. The order prompted a vague January 26th statement from City Hall spokesman Fabian Levy, who said Adams “doesn’t feel his best” and took a break from his normal schedule. .
Adams was tested for MRI, blood tests and bacterial infections in the intestines that could cause stomach ulcers last week, and ended up with the doctor who cleaned him up on Jan. 29, officials said.
“All the tests were negative,” Adams said.
“I had to go down for one of them… I was going to be under anesthesia,” Adams said on Wednesday about the medical examination, apparently on January 3rd’s large intestine. It hinted at an endoscopy.
Adams also hinted that at least some of his calamities had something to do with his diabetes.
He said he was 25 pounds heavier than his “true combat weight” and would return to a more plant-based diet that he believes he managed his diabetes.
Adams’ predecessor was much quicker to notify millions of members about health issues.
A day before Bill de Blasio had surgery for hernia in 2015, his team spoke to the public about future procedures, and announced that then Mayor would return to city hall within days.
Former mayor of 2000, Mayor Rudy Giuliani not only revealed that 90 rice-sized radioactive titanium seeds had been placed in the prostate for cancer treatment, but also even held a press conference from the hospital six hours later. .
Adams’ secrets are reminiscent of Michael Bloomberg. Michael Bloomberg caused controversy by frequently visiting mayors, particularly Bermuda, with frequent weekend trips.
Bloomberg was in Bermuda when a tragic snowstorm struck in 2010.
A former Bloomberg aide also said he had reason to believe that the former mayor had been in office for 12 years and undergoing colonoscopy and never revealed his routine medical procedures.
Adams argued that the ambiguous executive order, which has been renewed since his days in Giuliani, gave him the authority to act as his first vice mayor, Torres Springer, mayor.
The claim was immediately slapped by public advocate Jumanet Williams, designated by the city’s charter to take over if the mayor was neutralised.
Williams said he was not informed of Adams’ procedures and that the mayor broke the city’s rules.
“I’m pleased that the mayor is feeling better, and at the same time I feel deeply disturbed by this latest evidence that the mayor is ignoring city regulations to suit his purpose.” Williams said in a statement. “He has long shown a tendency to test distances that allow him to bend or break rules, which is a clear example.”
The City Charter shall be temporarily handed over by the public defender and the mayor if the citizen is unable to perform his duties due to illness.
Adams argued that the executive order would replace the charter.
He renewed the order in September and cleared the line of succession when the future of former Mayor Sheena Wright at City Hall was suspicious in the face of a string of federal attacks targeting city authorities near the mayor.
Adams again quietly signed on January 13th, records show.
Williams said he designated Thales Springer as mayoral duty. Torres Springer said it would not replace the charter language of government continuity as Gov. Kathy Hochul directed the Adams to be cleaned up after fighting.
“It’s clear that this is a violation of the Charter given the new disclosures from last week’s mayor’s era under anesthesia and that his office at the time did not publicly defend that fact,” Williams said. of the procedure given by Adams, who said that it contained the wrong date.
“In this case, failure to communicate is irresponsible at best and deceptive at worst.”
