President Donald Trump said the Democratic ticket, Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, should 'immediately apologize for the reckless anti-vaccine rhetoric' they've deployed during his North Portico press conference on Monday. 

 

'They're political lies. They'll say anything and it's so dangerous for our country what they say,' Trump went on. 'But the vaccine will be very safe and very effective and it will be delivered very soon.'  

 

Later in the presser, Trump said Biden and Harris were 'going to make the vaccine into the negative.' The president also said he was hopeful that it would come out before a 'special date,' a clear nod to election day. 

 

Harris had earlier said that she'd be dubious of any vaccine fast-tracked before election day, as the pandemic has made Trump's re-election prospects more difficult.

 

'I will say that I would not trust Donald Trump and it would have to be a credible source of information that talks about the efficacy and the reliability of whatever he's talking about. I will not take his word for it,' Harris said in an interview with CNN that was released Saturday. 

 

She also feared members of of the medical community could potentially be silenced. 'They'll be muzzled, they'll be suppressed, they will be sidelined,' Harris said. 'Because he's looking at an election coming up in less than 60 days and he's grasping to get whatever he can to pretend he has been a leader on this issue when he is not.' 

 

Trump's Monday presser was filled with digs at Biden and Harris. 'Biden wants to surrender our country to the virus,' Trump said at one point.
