Donald Trump, in an interview with FOX News, strongly recommended the COVID-19 vaccines to all Americans and even called out his supporters in the process.

"I would recommend it to a lot of people that don't want to get it and a lot of those people voted for me, frankly. [...] Again, we have our freedoms and we have to live by that and I agree with that also," said Trump.

This comes just days after a poll done by The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research showed that 42% of Republicans say they don't plan on getting a vaccine, while just 17% of Democrats say the same.

The former president also touted the vaccines' efficacy, saying they're both "great" and "safe" while being "something that works."

As of Tuesday, nearly 111 million doses of COVID-19 vaccines have been administered across the United States.
