Harvey Weinstein is "being closely monitored" by medical staff in prison, a spokesperson told Fox News on Tuesday. 

The disgraced filmmaker "has a fever," said Weinstein's spokesperson, Juda Engelmayer, on behalf of himself and Weinstein's prison consultant, Craig Rothfeld. However, they could "neither confirm nor deny that Mr. Weinstein has tested positive for COVID-19," following a report, which alleges that is "likely" to be the case.

Weinstein, 68, is serving 23 years in Wende Correctional Facility in Alden New York because he was convicted on charges of rape and sexual assault earlier this year. He still awaits trial in Los Angeles.

Fox News confirmed in March that Weinstein had tested positive for the novel virus though he didn't show any symptoms.
