Vice President Mike Pence stood in front of the broadcaster’s camera in short sleeves with his wife.
To get the COVID-19 vaccine shot.
Vice President Pence stressed that the vaccine is safe and effective, saying this week will be the starting point for the end of the pandemic.
“We are very excited to be getting the safe and effective coronavirus vaccine we have secured and produced for Americans before the end of this week. We believe this week will mark the beginning of the end of the pandemic.”
Jerome Adams, head of public health services, a black doctor, was also given a shot, given that people of color are more resistant to the vaccine.
Earlier, the first vaccination in the United States was a Jamaican nurse.
President-elect Joe Biden will also be vaccinated next Monday in his home in Delaware.
President Trump’s vaccination is also of concern, but the White House has yet to disclose plans.
Pouch, head of the US Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, stressed that the ability to return to normal routine depends on how many people get the vaccine.
“The rapid pace of development was a reflection of extraordinary scientific progress, it did not compromise safety, nor did it compromise scientific integrity.”
It is said that some people present a large sum to the hospital and try to cut-in.
The Los Angeles Times reported that “some wealthy people are harassing doctors every day, saying they will donate tens of thousands of dollars,” and “a waiting list was created to be the first to be met when the general population starts.
