Vice President Mike Pence (screengrab)
Vice President Mike Pence was scorched on Twitter Saturday morning after saying medical masks will be available "in a matter of weeks" at a time when health workers are pleading for immediate help with supplies as they deal with a flood of coronavirus-afflicted patients.
Pence made the comments during a nationally televised address as the head of the coronavirus task force.
MSNBC's Mika Brzezinski got the criticism ball rolling by calling the vice president's blithe lack of concern "A disgrace."
