Harvey Weinstein speaks as witnesses watch during the sentencing following his conviction on sexual assault and rape charges in the Manhattan borough of New York City, New York, US March 11, 2020 in this courtroom sketch.
Powers said he learned that the test came back positive on Sunday morning and is concerned about the corrections officers, who he said lack proper protective equipment. Several staff have been quarantined, Powers said. Following the sentencing, Weinstein spent time at Bellevue Hospital in Manhattan for heart problems, according to his spokesman, Juda Engelmayer.
