2:32Now PlayingKamala Harris returned to the campaign trail after a brief absence due to people connected with her team testing positive for the coronavirus.
Harris kicked off her return at a drive-in car rally in Orlando on Monday to mark the first day of early voting in Florida, a critical swing state. She'll later campaign in Jacksonville.
The Democratic ticket is largely forgoing traditional campaign rallies due to virus risks. But Harris was energized as she bounded onto the outdoor stage in Orlando, dancing and shouting greetings to the crowd as they honked their horns in support.
She largely stuck to the campaign message of outlining President Donald Trump's failures in tackling the pandemic and urging people to cast their ballots early.
"He knew that this virus was five times more deadly than the flu. He knew it would impact children of America. He knew it was airborne. But what did he do? He kept that information to himself," Harris told the crowd. "I call it a cover up."
"We know we need a change, and a change is coming," Harris said to honking car horns.
Harris halted travel Thursday after her communications director and a member of the flight crew for her travel tested positive for the virus. The campaign said Harris did not need to quarantine under CDC guidelines, but she paused travel for four days.
She has repeatedly tested negative for the virus.
