Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin (R) dined outdoors at a New York restaurant on Wednesday, two days after she tested positive for COVID-19.
A manager for the Manhattan restaurant Elio’s confirmed to CNN that Palin dined outdoors there Wednesday evening.
It is the same restaurant she dined indoors at on Saturday despite not being vaccinated against COVID-19. Patrons eating at restaurants in New York City are required to show proof of vaccination as a prerequisite to dine inside.
New York City will not investigate the restaurant over the matter.
Elio’s manager Luca Guaitolini told CNN that Palin had returned to the restaurant on Wednesday to apologize for the “fracas” that stemmed from her previous visit. She was then seated outdoors.
“In accordance with the vaccine mandate and to protect our staff, we seated her outdoors ... We are a restaurant open to the public, and we treat civilians the same,” Guaitolini said.
