    Presumably Pence is being tested regularly. Maybe that's why he thought he didn't need a mask.

    "Vague", but not stopping them from opening up business. I reckon the phrasing is intended to provide an alibi in case the number of cases continues to rise after "reopening"... btw, sure seems they are laser focused on getting haircuts.

    libs need to stfu, they are making way too big a deal about the mask.

    Also, its insane in how just over a month 60K people have died with EXTREME social distancing.

    I don’t know but that seems like that could be a possibility since tests aren’t absolutely accurate and we’re seeing the possibility of reinfection.

    Me and a lot of other folks are starting to realize it. COVID really is turning into a disease as opposed to just a pathogen, some people that have tested negative multiple times have all the radiographic, lab, etc evidence. Its not making any sense but everybody testing for COVID is realizing it too. We're not lifting isolation precautions even if the tests come back negative. Seen so many people throwing clots too, stuff is crazy

    Not sure if serious but regarding the social distance part but the early projections were fro millions dead if we did nothing so only 60K dead is an improvement and due to extreme social distancing. Social distance isn’t fool proof given that we have to interact at some point with people and given that not everyone is following social distance.

    I’m pretty sure Pence is following the lead of Trump and it wouldn’t surprise me if he was told, or at least a suggestion was made, by Trump to not wear a mask in public.
