Cristina Cuomo – Amidst fighting coronavirus and announcing Cristina Cuomo‘s recovery, Chris Cuomo‘s son has also come down with the virus. Chris Cuomo’s wife posted a heartfelt message that their son, Mario Cuomo, has contracted the virus on Instagram this Wednesday.
The CNN anchor’s wife shares pictures of her baby, addressing Earth day and announcing the sad news. She writes, “After ten days of ups and downs, feeling good one-day and terrible the next, I am now working toward getting my son, Mario, through the virus.”
Cristina Cuomo continued, “My heart hurts more than my head over his infection. This virus does not discriminate. While kids are more resilient, they can suffer the same severity of symptoms.” Furthermore, Mrs. Cuomo also told that she is using some of the methods that worked for her to bring Mario back to health.
Chris Cuomo’s wife also mentions that the virus has created a different version of her, which is more hopeful, more reliable, and healthier. She also spoke to the Entertainment Tonight about their naturopathic route way to recovery.
After a few hours of Cristina’s post, Chris gave a brief update on his Cuomo Prime Time. He clarified that the virus worked through the family while speaking to his brother, Andrew Cuomo, on a video chat. He added that his family was doing fine and thanked Andrew for his concern.
The husband-wife duo was compelled to quarantine in their Hamptons home in late March and April, respectively, after contracting the novel virus. The CNN host had been documenting his battle with the COVID-19 on Cuomo Prime Time. Chris had returned to his family after he beat off the infection three weeks after he went to quarantine in their basement.
The devastating news must have hurt the Cuomo family, which includes the couple’s daughters, Bella Cuomo and Carolina Regina Cuomo. Let’s hope the Cuomo family gets over the pandemic soon.

Cristina Cuomo’s Wellness Regimen Shows How the Rich Deal With Coronavirus
She shares some of her COVID-19-fighting tips, including using a body charger and bathing in a half cup of Clorox.
One of the most painful truths laid bare by the COVID-19 pandemic is the chasm between the wealthy and the poor in this country, and how in many cities, members of the latter group have disproportionately represented those afflicted by the virus. But the rich, of course, get COVID-19, too — they just have more resources to combat it. And one of the ways they do so is by renting a pulsed electromagnetic field machine to stimulate cellular self-healing, and then blogging about it.
Cristina Cuomo, wife of CNN anchor Chris Cuomo (and sister-in-law to New York Governor Andrew Cuomo), is the founder and CEO of a wellness publication called The Purist. So it is not exactly surprising that, following her own COVID-19 diagnosis, she would blog about her family’s coronavirus health and wellness regimens, which are replete with wellness buzzwords such as Ayurvedic diets and oxygenation and cleansing shakes and body charger devices .
According to Cuomo’s post, she takes oxygenated herbs like Echinacea Osha and two “medicinal florals (xanthium and magnolia)” per day as well as antivirals and Sinex to fight her sinus headaches and difficulty breathing. Which, OK, so far pretty normal. She then proceeds to share that she enlists a New York City-doctor to administer at-home antiviral infusions at her Hamptons home:
She shows up in her full hazmat outfit and 3M mask. I got magnesium, NAC (a precursor to glutathione, said to be very helpful against COVID-19), vitamin C with lysine, proline, and B complex, folic acid, zinc, selenium, glutathione and caffeine (to combat the headache).
She also notes that she adds “½ cup of Clorox to my bathwater to combat the radiation and metals in my system and oxygenate it,” and that she uses a “body charger,” a device that purportedly sends electrical frequencies throughout her body, to “oxygenate my blood and stimulate the healthy production of blood cells to fortify my immune system.”
She also notes that she rented a PEMF (pulsed electromagnetic field) machine from a health store in Water Mill, which purportedly use electromagnetic fields to stimulate self-healing. (One study found that while PEMF “may offer some benefit in the treatment of delayed union and non‐union of long bone fractures, it is inconclusive and insufficient to inform current practice.”) She goes on to say that “for COVID-19, [PEMF] increases the speed with which your lungs and whole body can recover” and that it is “good to use for any ailment, at any time”; though many PEMF devices are approved by the FDA for use as general wellness products, they are not approved as medical devices.
It’s important to note that the Cuomos are in an undoubtedly frightening situation, especially since Cristina just revealed that her 14-year-old son Mario is also fighting the virus. And, in another context, Cuomo’s post would merely be silly internet marginalia, prime fodder for wellness industry detractors and sundry internet snarker types (basically, the same people who still thought it was fun to make Goop jade egg jokes after 2015).
But we’re no longer living in 2015. We’re living in 2020, during a time when nearly 50,000 Americans have died of the virus the Cuomos are currently fighting, many of whom are low-income service workers fighting for safer working conditions, very few of whom have access to Ayurvedic food, let alone PEMF machines. In this world, and in this context, Cristina Cuomo sharing her coronavirus wellness regimen isn’t so much funny as it does reflect a very specific lack of understanding of her and her family’s privilege, and how starkly it contrasts with the lives of most of the other people fighting this illness. It’s great that she can afford to have a doctor come to her home in a hazmat suit and 3M mask to administer a vitamin drip to help her fight her sinus infection. But considering that most healthcare workers less than 100 miles from the Cuomos’ Hamptons home show up to work every day without having access to either of those things, it’s safe to say that this missive should’ve been saved to her drafts.
