Vice President Kamala Harris has shared a health report from her doctor, saying she is in "excellent health." The report shows that she is strong enough to do the job of president. Harris, who is 59 years old, released this information on Saturday morning.

Her doctor, Joshua Simmons, confirmed that Harris is fit to serve in the highest office. This move seems to be a response to questions about former President Donald Trump’s health and age as he runs for president again in 2024.

Recently, people have become more worried about Trump’s mental health. Chris Christie, a former Trump ally, said he has noticed a "significant" mental decline in Trump. At 78 years old, Trump would be the oldest president in U.S. history if he wins.

On Friday, Trump gave speeches in Nevada and Colorado, pushing for stricter immigration laws. He even said that migrants who kill U.S. citizens should get the death penalty. He also talked about an old law from 1798 that lets the government deport some non-citizens.

These comments upset some leaders, including Mike Coffman, the Republican mayor of Aurora, Colorado. He said Trump’s claim that migrant gangs have "taken over" the city was false. Coffman insisted that neither the city nor the state has been invaded by gangs.

Harris’s decision to share her health report highlights a key issue in the 2024 election: age and fitness for the job. A senior aide from Harris’s team said the report would show her strength and ability to lead, especially compared to Trump. If Harris becomes president, the aide said, she is fully able to handle all responsibilities, including being Commander in Chief.

Harris’s campaign also wants to challenge Trump to share more information about his health. Though Trump has said he’s happy to release his recent health records, many people are still waiting for the full details. He has claimed to have taken tests to check his brain health and said he passed them with high scores. However, these tests mainly check for signs of dementia, not intelligence.

Trump's medical report, released in November 2023, says that his health is "excellent." But the letter from his doctor didn’t include specific information like his vital signs or whether he's taking any medicine. This lack of detail has raised questions, especially given his age and the pressure of the presidential race.

In the past, it was common for candidates to hide their health problems. Now, candidates are expected to be more open about their medical records. Both Trump and Harris have faced health challenges in recent years. For example, Harris had COVID-19 in 2022 and used a treatment called Paxlovid to recover.
