WASHINGTON — A lighthearted moment unfolded in the Oval Office when Secretary Kennedy let out a sudden sneeze during a meeting with President Donald Trump.

Without missing a beat, Trump quipped: “God bless you, Bobby. I hope I didn’t catch COVID just there.”

Turning toward the Pfizer CEO, who was also present, Trump added with a grin: “Give me a Paxlovid immediately.”

The exchange sparked laughter in the room, showing the president’s ability to bring humor to tense moments, even when discussing serious matters like public health.

Observers noted that while the comment was tongue-in-cheek, it also tied back to Trump’s recent deal with Pfizer, which secured major discounts on medications for Americans.
