"At the moment, the president is fully open to receiving the vaccine, but he recently had COVID-19," Makenani quoted TASS as saying.
Trump still has a protective effect from Regeneron Pharmaceuticals' antibody-based drug, which the president received as part of his coronavirus treatment, she said.
“He will receive the vaccine as soon as his medical team decides that it is better (to do it. - RT),” she added.
Earlier, the chief US infectious disease specialist, Anthony Fauci, recommended that US President-elect Joe Biden be vaccinated against COVID-19 before taking office.
The specialist recommended that Trump also get vaccinated.
On December 14, Trump announced that the United States had received the first coronavirus vaccine.
