Here are some main topics from the debate.

Harris said US President Donald Trump and Pence knew about the dangers of the coronavirus -- which has killed more than 211,000 people in America -- in late January, but"covered it up" and"minimized the seriousness of it."

The vice president's statement on travel is inaccurate. Rather than barring all travel from China, Trump imposed restrictions that were subject to multiple exemptions. A New York Times analysis found that tens of thousands of travelers entered the US from China in the two months following the restrictions.

This echoes Harris's response to Pence’s claim, in which she pledged:"Joe Biden will not raise taxes on anyone who earns less than $400,000 a year." Pence responded that,"President Trump and I have a plan to improve health care and protect pre-existing conditions." No such plan has been presented to Congress.
