Kamala Harris Publishes Health Report in Strategic Move Against Trump
On Saturday, Vice President Kamala Harris made headlines by publishing an extensive report that outlines her health and medical background. This move appears to be aimed at drawing attention to former President Donald Trump’s health status and advancing age.
Medical Insights from Dr. Joshua Simmons
Dr. Joshua Simmons, the vice president’s physician, stated in a letter that Harris is “in excellent health.” He emphasized her mental and physical strength as essential attributes for fulfilling presidential responsibilities including those of Chief Executive, Head of State, and Commander-in-Chief.
The doctor highlighted seasonal allergies and hives (urticaria) as noteworthy aspects of her medical history but mentioned that she has managed these issues with over-the-counter medications which have never resulted in severe conditions.
Recent Medical Examinations
Simmons provided insights into Harris’ latest physical assessment conducted in April 2024, describing the results as “unremarkable.” Routine blood tests also yielded inconspicuous outcomes; however, he did point out that her Vitamin D levels were found to be “insufficient.”
Additively, Simmons indicated a familial predisposition to colon cancer but refrained from detailing any significant personal history regarding other health conditions.
Criticism Directed at Trump’s Transparency on Health Records
Diving into current political dynamics during a recent press engagement in North Carolina, Harris condemned Trump for his lack of transparency regarding his own medical records—something she believes every presidential candidate should provide. She remarked on Trump’s avoidance of conventional campaign engagements such as debates or interviews with major news outlets like ’60 Minutes.’
When probed about Trump’s fitness for office without having seen his medical documents herself, she tactfully avoided making a direct assessment yet insinuated that he lacks the capability needed for effective leadership.
A Glaring Lack of Public Information on Trump’s Health
The most thorough details available concerning Trump’s health come from nearly seven years ago when his then-physician reported high cholesterol levels along with being overweight and suffering from rosacea—a benign skin condition.
Despite promises made during both his first run in 2016 and now during this election cycle to divulge more detailed medical records, Trump has not followed through with such commitments yet again this time around.
The response from Trump’s team directed inquiries about his health records back towards previous comments released by Rep. Ronny Jackson (R-Texas) along with statements issued by Dr. Bruce Aronwald—Trump’s personal physician—which proclaimed him to be in “excellent overall health,” though lacking specific details concerning any ongoing issues or concerns.
