Mike Pence Assures U.S. Public That Covid Vaccine Is Safe

Vice President Mike Pence received the coronavirus vaccine in a televised event at the White House on Friday in a bid to encourage Americans to get the shot.

Pence received the first of two doses of Pfizer Inc.’s vaccine at an office building on the White House compound. Second Lady Karen Pence and Surgeon General Jerome Adams also received the vaccine.

“History will record that this week was the beginning of the end of the coronavirus pandemic,” said Pence, who chairs the White House’s coronavirus task force. “But with cases rising across the country, hospitalizations rising across the country, we have a ways to go.”

The U.S. distributed about 2.9 million doses of Pfizer’s vaccine this week, the first since its approval for use. More than 300,000 Americans have died from the virus, and new cases and current hospitalizations have reached record levels this month.

Recent polls have shown that confidence in the vaccine is increasing but that many Americans still harbor doubts. Pfizer’s vaccine requires two doses, meaning Pence and Adams will need to receive a second shot in three weeks.

“I didn’t feel a thing,” said Pence of the shot.

Please, Georgians need a large stimulus. Vote Ossoff/Warnock. Senator 's chicken Purdue and Loeffler have enriched themselves from our death and misery. Trading stocks on confidential info. while telling public not to worry of covid, blood is on their hands. Business will be helped by large stimulus too. Don't be fooled by meaningless words- liberal, radical, socialist. If you care about middle classes, and care about education, social security, medicare, etc. please help.
