Pence will meet Florida’s governor to discuss coronavirus, en route to fundraiser
Vice President Mike Pence, the newly appointed White House coronavirus response coordinator, was preparing to leave Friday for his first trip out of Washington since President Trump tapped him for the job: a meeting with Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis to discuss preparedness for the epidemic.
On Wednesday, President Trump said that Pence would lead the coronavirus effort, declining to call him a “czar” after criticizing former President Barack Obama’s administration for using the same language. During the announcement, Trump conflicted with messaging from health officials who have said a vaccine could take over a year by saying it was “something that we can develop fairly rapidly.”
According to the report, the whistleblower faced professional retaliation from Health and Human Services Secretary Alex Azar, a former pharmaceutical lobbyist who is also leading the White House’s coronavirus efforts.
