Responding to weak reporting Vice President Pence’s office has denied claims that he came into contact with a student who was later quarantined for the coronavirus.

According to The Hill:

Vice President Mike Pence’s office said he did not have contact with a Florida student who was later quarantined for the coronavirus while visiting the student’s school, Bloomberg News reported.

The vice president on Friday reportedly shook hands with the male student’s classmates at Sarasota Military Academy. The student was later quarantined along with his mother, who came in contact with a patient who tested positive for coronavirus “in her professional role” at Sarasota Doctors Hospital, according to the school’s Facebook post.

Both were put in quarantine “as a precautionary measure.”

Katie Miller, a spokeswoman for Pence, confirmed the vice president “did not meet or come into contact at all with this student.”

The disinformation about the virus has become rampant in the media and this is just another example of loose reporting on the topic.

President Trump appointed Vice President Pence as the coronavirus czar who will lead the task force to combat it.\

Obviously the democrats are beginning to realize that President Trump is getting V. P. Pence ready to become president when President Trump is through his presidency. Experience counts. Has anyone noticed that all of a sudden the media is picking at V.P. Pence. Digs and complaints here and there. V.P. Pence gives me the impression he is a tough cookie and might be even be tougher than President Trump against those trying to destroy V.P. Pence. We need the toughness of President Trump continuing on with V. P. Pence.

Absolutely! Still waters run deep and Pence seems to me to be tough as a hicker nut. (Hickory Nut is correct pronunciation, but in the deep South, it’s “Hicker Nut”. LOL!

Why is it that people are not being told that Lysol kills the Human Coronavirus in 30 seconds?
If it is that easy to kill, why can a vaccine not be manufactured quickly and easily? Just sayin’.

The ORIGINAL LYSOL most certainly does kill Germs, Bacteria and Viruses. It’s still being sold on Amazon, for reasonable prices . It’s the original bottle, except it’s now plastic, instead of glass. My mother used it consistently at home, and in every room at a small motel she and my dad built and owned. There was never one complaint, when people walked into the rooms to look at them, and the smell of iodine scent it gave off. They knew it was cleaned, and most certainly rented the room. She cleaned the shower tiles, and their tile floor within, and the room floors, the plastic covers on the mattresses, and box springs, door handles, and the Formica desks, and chairs. And we did have several people who were rather ill when they came in. But you cannot turn people away because they show symptoms.
That being said, it’s a definitive odor of iodine, which is rarely used anymore. Obama made certain it was taken off the market. But we’ve got it back now. If they would use it to clean in the doctors offices and hospitals, it would clean them up immediately.

The Coronavirus has been shown to be LESS lethal than Influenza, and about as contagious as the ‘common cold’. Not a good thing, but not even near the problem of the “Black Plague” which is what it’s being made to sound like in the media.
