Harris, 59, "healthy enough to serve as president"

U.S. Democratic presidential candidate Vice President Kamala Harris has released the results of her examination, saying she is healthy enough to serve as president.

White House Vice President Joshua Simmons said in a letter released by Vice President Harris on the 12th local time, "Vice President Harris is in excellent health. We have the physical and mental resilience necessary to successfully perform the duties of the presidency, including the head of the executive branch, the head of state and the commander-in-chief," it said.

Harris' most recent check-up was in April and there were no specifics, Simons said.

Harris suffered from seasonal allergies and hives, but her symptoms have improved over the past three years through allergen immunotherapy and she is now managing it with medicines such as rhinitis spray.

In addition, I have never suffered from diabetes, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, heart disease, lung disease, neurological disease, cancer, or osteoporosis.

U.S. media reported that Vice President Harris, 59, released the screening to contrast former President Trump, who is 78.

When 81-year-old President Joe Biden was the Democratic candidate, Trump raised controversy over his age by taking issue with Biden's cognition, but now he has to defend his age against Vice President Harris.

The Associated Press reported that Harris' presidential campaign is trying to raise questions about whether former President Trump is healthy enough to be president again.

Until now, former President Trump has been criticized by the media for revealing very limited information about his health.

Former President Trump released a medical examination report prepared by his doctor in November 2023, but the document only stated that "the overall health status is excellent" and "the mental health such as cognition is excellent," but did not contain any details to support it.
