<p>Despite her criticisms of it as being potentially unsafe during the presidential campaign, Sen. Kamala Harris (D-CA) took the COVID-19 vaccine on Tuesday.</p>
<p>As she received her first shot for the Moderna vaccine at United Medical Center that was broadcasted on three cable networks, Harris encouraged everyone to get the vaccine.</p>
<p>&#8220;I want to encourage everyone to get <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/category/health/infectious-disease/vaccines" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">the vaccine</a>. It is relatively painless, it happens really quickly. It is safe,&#8221; she said.</p>
<p>&#8220;This is about saving lives. It&#8217;s literally about saving lives. I trust the scientists, and it is the scientists who created and approved this vaccine, everyone,&#8221; she added. &#8220;So I urge everyone, when it is your turn, get vaccinated. It&#8217;s about saving your life, the life of your family members, and the life of your community.&#8221;</p>
<p>During the vice-presidential debate, Harris made a spectacle out of questioning the efficacy of the vaccine due to President Donald Trump&#8217;s enthusiasm for it.</p>
<p>&#8220;If Dr. Fauci, the doctors, tell us that we should take it, I&#8217;ll be the first in line to take it,&#8221; <a href="https://www.buzzfeednews.com/article/salvadorhernandez/kamala-harris-covid-vaccine-vp-debate">Harris said</a>. &#8220;But if Donald Trump tells us we should take it, I&#8217;m not going to take it.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;The fact that you continue to undermine public confidence in a vaccine, if a vaccine emerges during the Trump administration, I think is unconscionable, and Senator, I just ask you to stop playing politics with peoples’ lives,&#8221; the vice president shot back.</p>
<p>Prior to that, Harris said on CNN that she would not trust Trump&#8217;s word on the vaccine&#8217;s efficacy.</p>
<p>&#8220;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&#8217;s talking about,&#8221; <a href="https://www.cnn.com/2020/09/05/politics/kamala-harris-not-trust-trump-vaccine-cnntv/index.html">she said</a>.</p>
<p>Harris even went as far to say that scientists and medical professionals would not be given the &#8220;last word&#8221; on the vaccine&#8217;s efficacy, a position that has quickly been proven false in the wake of the vaccine&#8217;s rollout.</p>
<p>&#8220;If past is prologue that they will not, they&#8217;ll be muzzled, they&#8217;ll be suppressed, they will be sidelined,&#8221; Harris said. &#8220;Because he&#8217;s looking at an election coming up in less than 60 days and he&#8217;s grasping to get whatever he can to pretend he has been a leader on this issue when he is not.&#8221;</p>
<p>Harris taking the vaccine followed former Vice President Joe Biden, who said people have &#8220;nothing to worry about.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m doing this to demonstrate that people should be prepared, when it&#8217;s available, to take the vaccine. There&#8217;s nothing to worry about,&#8221; Biden said.</p>
<p>According to a  <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/politics/fox-news-poll-voters-say-u-s-failed-to-take-coronavirus-threat-seriously-enough" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Fox News national poll, </a>roughly &#8220;61% of Americans plan to get vaccinated against COVID-19, up from 54% in September.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Among the 28% who do not plan to be vaccinated, the top reasons include that its development was rushed (23%), a lack of trust it will work (21%), opposition to vaccines generally (13%), distrust of the government (10%), and concern about side effects (9%),&#8221; Fox <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/politics/harris-covid-19-vaccine-painless-safe">reported</a>.</p>
