00:00Vice-President Kamala Harris is in excellent health.

00:03That's according to a letter by her White House doctor.

00:07She possesses the physical and mental resiliency required to successfully

00:11execute the duties of the presidency.

00:14Despite no law compelling candidates to do so,

00:17Harris took aim at former President Donald Trump for not providing his own health history.

00:23So today I released my medical records as has, I believe, every candidate for President of

00:30the United States except Donald Trump in this election cycle.

00:34And it's just a further example of his lack of transparency.

00:39There is very little known about Trump's health.

00:41This includes after an attempted assassination in July in which a bullet grazed his ear.

00:47His team has insisted the 78-year-old is fit for the job

00:50without providing further medical information.

00:54All have concluded his imperfect and excellent health to be commander-in-chief.

01:00The former president was on the campaign trail.

01:03He did not respond to Harris's calls to release his records.

01:07In Las Vegas, he focused on trying to win the Latino vote.

01:11It's an incredible group of people.

01:13It's an honour to have you on my side.

01:15We are getting numbers of Hispanic Americans that nobody ever thought possible.

01:20If Donald Trump wins in November, he would be 82 at the end of his term.

01:25This would make him the oldest president in history.
