Jimmy Kimmel joked regarding Vice President Mike Pence on the subject of getting the COVID-19 vaccine, according to Fox News.

Kimmel brought up the nor’easter that hit the east coast.

“Speaking of cold, white stuff, Mike Pence is expected to get the first dose of two Pfizer shots tomorrow,” Kimmel said.

“He and his wife Karen will be doing it on television to show that the vaccine is safe. I guess the thinking is if it’s good enough for ‘America’s First Karen,’ it should be good enough for the rest of them too.”

“So maybe save that dose for someone else.”

“The only cure Mike Pence should get right now is a bottle of Clorox and a heat lamp.”

“The American people can be confident: We have one and perhaps within hours two” safe vaccines,” Pence said, referring to expected FDA approval for Moderna’s vaccine. Pfizer-BioNTech’s vaccine was the first to be approved. “Building confidence in the vaccine is what brings us here this morning,” said VP Pence.

Pence’s wife, Karen, and Surgeon General Jerome Adams also received shots.
