Mike Pence Becomes First US Official To Be Vaccinated In Public

The US Vice-President Mike Pence and his wife have publicly received a fresh dose of Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine during a live-television event on December 18. Pence lauded the Walter Reed Medical Centre for their vaccine-administration and said, "I didn't feel a thing. Well done." To promote confidence in the vaccine's safety among people, Pence stated Americans could be "confident". However, he dodged the questions on Trump volunteering for the same cause.
