KEY POINTS

  • Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner got their COVID-19 vaccines separately last week, a report says
  • Kushner reportedly waited in line at a CVS pharmacy in Miami Beach, Florida, Friday before receiving the Pfizer vaccine
  • This comes after Trump shared photos of her own vaccination

Ivanka Trump's husband Jared Kushner has joined her in getting vaccinated against the coronavirus, a report says.

Kushner, 40, registered on a Florida state website and received the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine on Friday at a CVS in Miami Beach, Page Six reported, citing an unnamed source. He waited in line for 30 minutes at the pharmacy for his shot, the report added.

On the other hand, his wife, 39, went to a randomly assigned CVS branch in Miami two days earlier for her own jab, the report said.

"They both signed up on a Florida state website and got the vaccines when they became available," the source added.

Kushner helped run Operation Warp Speed, which focused on rapid vaccine development, when he was still senior White House adviser, Page Six noted.

Meanwhile, Trump broke her social media silence last week to post photos of her receiving her COVID-19 vaccine and encouraging her supporters to get vaccinated.

"Today, I got the shot!!! I hope that you do too! Thank you Nurse Torres!!!” she wrote.

Like her husband, Trump also received the Pfizer vaccine in Florida, where people 16 and above are eligible, the Associated Press reported. She told the AP in a statement that "getting vaccinated is our best way to beat this virus and protect ourselves and others."

However, Trump's post received mixed responses from social media users. Some mocked her for getting vaccinated despite allegedly failing to promote pandemic safety measures, while others thanked her for publicly sharing her vaccination because it will help encourage others to do the same.

"So great! Remember when your family called it a 'hoax' and intentionally let it spread so you could 'blame blue states' and now nearly a million Americans are dead? Good times," one person said.

"Thank you for getting vaccinated and posting this. I hope it inspires others to do the same," sportswriter and activist Dave Hogg commented.
