Pence has repeatedly tested negative for the virus since exposure to an aide who tested positive, but is following medical advice by keeping his distance from other people. (corrects that Pence won't work from home)

Vice President Mike Pence reacts to audience members after a roundtable with agriculture and food supply leaders about steps being taken to ensure the food supply remains secure in response to the coronavirus pandemic, Friday, May 8, 2020, in West Des Moines, Iowa.

“Vice President Pence will continue to follow the advice of the White House Medical Unit and is not in quarantine,” spokesman Devin O’Malley said Sunday. “Additionally, Vice President Pence has tested negative every single day and plans to be at the White House tomorrow.” A military service member who acts as a valet to the president tested positive on Thursday, the first known instance where a person in close proximity to the president at the White House had tested positive.

Exposed your wife?

Why not?

Another example of complete irresponsibility.

Didn’t his aid test negative, too, until she didn’t? VP realDonaldTrump aren’t the secret service infected as well? Isn’t Stephen Miller? Isn’t other White Hiise staff?

All that testing going on at the White House. If only the rest of the country could be tested that way!!

keepondontstop Are you sure? I heard he caught the ‘rona.

Yeah, well, VP will test negative until he doesn't... that's how it works.

Just shoot him up with meth like Adolf

It’s time for the 3 Mafiosi: Trump, Miller and Pence to now go see The ironic twist Of their helping assist In the making of POTUS Pelosi covidinthewhitehouse

Something like a 15% chance that his test was a false negative and yet

QuarantinePence PenceIsContagious

Everyone gets a test! Especially if your the VIce President.

Messaging remains a top priority of this administration!

Both VP and POTUS have had more than one recent exposure to COVID. If they had any intelligence or morals, they would do the right thing - they would go into quarantine for 14 days and then ALWAYS wear a mask. Why don't they do it? We don't need them! TrumpIsAnIdiot 💔😭

All he needs is some disinfectant

This should read Pence was going to do the right thing but said screw it

Pence is Lizard People foh shizzle

Couple days ago, this COVIDIOT delivered PPE — purportedly (or just, boxes?) to a **nursing home**. No one appeared to be wearing a mask or gloves. But it’s probably fine. 🙄 😷

America is so lucky to have this type of leadership. Trump can take blame for MANY deaths just because he doesn’t want to look silly! Such a brave fellow he is! Such an example for all of our people, especially our children. He’s quite the COWARD!!

Virus in the house....Will get them all🙌✊🙌👊🙌💥🙌⚡🙌👎🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

Thank God! Everyone knows Mother needs s break! MoscowMitch approves this message. 🍊🍄🦠💉💰

He needs to follow CDC procedure and self isolate like everyone else exposed.

The coronavirus task force is decapitated by coronavirus. I hate to say it but that about sums up the whole damn US response.

Give it two weeks and test again.and again. And again..

Cool

He can’t stand in the background looking dumb from home?

Mmm so close. Soooo close.

He went to MayoClinic and spread his germs with no consideration

He can work from home. There is zero need for him to be at work

Wow, this administration is really great at taking these tests and passing them. There’s never been more tests by any administration. They’re the best. Majority of their tests are good. Not many bad ones.

Maybe pence can try that injection trump was talking about...

14 day self quarantine is mandatory- for everyone that came in contact w Mrs. Miller, Including reporters she coughed on.

Come on god, do something right for once...

Can't fix STUPID! !

His aid repeatedly tested negative, until one day, out of no where, tested positive. That’s why tests are useless. Didn’t Trump say something like that So quit testing everyday.

Guess he’s just so special he does not have to worry.

Very confusing story. Sounds like he should self-quarantine but he was told not to by a non-medical person with an orange face.

Seems like Trump's base would say if COVID-19 is a hoax why in the hell does Trump and Pence test everyday......

Weird robot overlord immune to virus

Evil doesn't die easy. Thats why Kim Jong, Trump/Pence etc are not affected

Leading with stupid. Just reaffirms this administration doesn’t care about people: they only care about themselves and fake appearance. (Who is the White House doctor- tRumps hippy doctor? Probably what’s not being said is the White House is operating under quarantine guidelines)

Whatttest brand is Pence using? Many COVID19 tests are showing inaccurate results as highlighted by the media. 🏴

Even if he was + the public wouldn't know; unless it takes a bad turn. Although they might spin it as a cold.

I just hope Giuliani is still under the desk, I hear COVID 19 can remain in semen for a prolonged duration.

So he's already had it.

He was walking around a hospital with no mask on, and no shoe covers. idiot

He's Reptilian

Didn’t she repeatedly “test good” until she didn’t?

Maybe he will wear a mask now. Or maybe he and trump can hang out together w/ no masks on to prove to America it is safe. Dumb and Dumber!

If you thoroughly spray an android like Pence with Lysol, and wipe him down, everything should be fine. Ivanka does it with Jared every night.

Sad that he doesn’t feel he needs to do what EVERYONE in the country is doing. These assholes make me sick

Do they ever have their stories straight?

Lol but I thought this shit was a hoax perpetuated by the Democrats tho

Well, his assistant consistently tested negative for the virus until she didn’t. So...

This shows how stupid these people are. Glad they’ve been paying attention to the science MouthBreathers

you guys will be the first he tells if he does test positive.

I call bullshit. THERE IS NO WAY they are testing EVERY DAY!

I'm so sorry to sloth from the goonies for comparing the two.

'REPEATEDLY tested.'

Give us some good news

Wait he has aids?

ObamaGate

I wonder if there is a reason Pelosi is staying far away from DC and it is related to the recent news of White House staff catching covid-19? Connected?

I'm holding out hope . . . .

like it or not, don't look at my pics 😜💦
