Vice President Kamala Harris released a summary of her medical records which show her to be a healthy 59-year-old female with seasonal allergies and urticaria. Her physician stated that she has no severe symptoms or allergies, eats a healthy diet, exercises regularly, drinks moderately, and does not use tobacco products. Harris’ last medical exam in April was said to be unremarkable, with all routine exams and bloodwork coming back normal. This is the first time her medical records have been made public. In comparison, former President Donald Trump has yet to release his medical records, with his last report in November 2023 lacking specifics. Harris’ campaign is using Trump’s age, 78, as a focal point, highlighting concerns about his health and implying potential issues with his mental acuity. This strategy is a reversal of Trump’s attacks on Biden’s age during the previous election cycle. Harris has released an ad questioning what would happen if Trump became incapacitated as president, leaving Sen. JD Vance to take over, citing instances of Trump appearing to struggle with speech. Overall, Harris’ medical records show her to be in good health, contrasting with the lack of transparency from Trump about his health status.
