Vice President Mike Pence made a stop at the Mayo Clinic on Tuesday to speak with officials and be around patients who have been suffering from COVID-19.
Pence thought it would be a good idea if he was the only person in the room without a protective mask.
Now, according to Maggie Haberman of The New York Times, Pence claims that “since I don’t have the coronavirus” he can be careless and go around without any protective equipment.
