Yesterday, Joe Biden and Kamala Harris — who are both full vaccinated against COVID19 — socially distantly sat down with a few other masked people in the Oval Office:

This morning, CNN’s John Berman asked Andy Slavitt, White House Senior Director for COVID Response, to explain why, exactly, Joe Biden felt compelled to wear a mask despite being fully vaccinated:
W.H.’s @ASlavitt unable to explain why administration officials continue wearing masks despite being vaccinated.

John Berman doesn’t look like he’s buying Andy Slavitt’s explanation. Andy Slavitt doesn’t even look like he’s buying Andy Slavitt’s explanation.
Because seriously, what even is Andy Slavitt’s explanation?

I couldn’t believe he compared masks to the secret service. Just amazing.

Can Secret Service agents be shrunk into Biden's bloodstream? Is this Fantastic Voyage? #Error404 pic.twitter.com/15JYLKqEk3

The White House Senior Advisor to COVID Response doesn’t understand that masks don’t protect the wearer? pic.twitter.com/l1mtZv678V

So why haven't we masked presidents for decades?

The vaccines work. Why does the president of the United States keep acting like they don't? https://t.co/mU8CTymrlP
