Hillary Clinton’s health re-emerges as issue

At the September 11 memorial service, Clinton became dehydrated and overheated, the doctor said. Dr. Lisa R. Barback said Clinton was examined at her home in suburban NY and “is now rehydrated and recovering nicely”.

Clinton also cancelled plans to fly to California Monday.

“There’s no other undisclosed condition”.

Clinton spokesman Brian Fallon said the new information should assuage concerns about her health. “That’s on the staff and we take responsibility for that”. The Clinton campaign did not respond to repeated requests for comment about the authenticity of the video. The speculations and rumors regarding Clinton’s health continue to spread in light of her problematic medical history.

“Personally, when I heard it, I thought it was not something that was in the realm of possible that she would have said it”, Trump said during a morning interview on Fox News” “Fox & Friends.

The Commission on Presidential Debates announced earlier this month the moderators for the three presidential debates were NBC’s Lester Holt for the first one, CNN’s Anderson Cooper and ABC’s Martha Raddatz for the second and Fox News Sunday host Chris Wallace for the final faceoff. The Republican nominee said he had recently had a physical and would release “very, very specific numbers” when he had them, probably “this week”. “She looked very nice and everything, and I don’t know what happened to her”.

“There are so many of them”, she said, “I’ve lost track of them”.

Neither presidential candidate has released their health records.

The incident compounds an already hard time for Clinton as the presidential race enters its final stretch.

On Saturday, Clinton came under fire from Republicans and on social media for saying Friday night that “half” of Trump’s supporters belonged in a “basket of deplorables”.

“She doubled up, because it was said with such anger, such unbelievable anger, and I think this is the biggest mistake of the political season”.

Trump added that being elected to the White House means, “You’re president of all the people”.

The weather was warm and humid in NY on Sunday, and there was a breeze at the crowded memorial plaza during the ceremony.

According to her doctor, she has pneumonia, and it’s bringing right-wing fringe questions about her health a little more mainstream. Aides provided no information about why she left or her whereabouts for almost two hours. Clinton kept with her grueling presidential schedule nonetheless.

She later left her daughter’s apartment, saying she was “feeling great”. She is more likely to give her economic-themed speech in a battleground state far closer to New York: Pennsylvania, New Hampshire and Ohio.

Her physician, Dr. Lisa Burdack, said the former secretary of state was diagnosed with pneumonia during an evaluation Friday after she had been suffering from prolonged coughing episodes.

Several Clinton allies said the incident underscored the candidate’s resilience.

According to a report that Dr. Lisa R. Bardack, Clinton’s doctor, wrote previous year, the Democratic candidate’s health is good. That official spoke on condition of anonymity, because he wasn’t authorized to disclose information publicly. For a president, who always travels with a protective pool, an hours-long gap without knowledge of their whereabouts could spark unrest in the financial markets and global concern.

Clinton’s campaign says the former secretary of state arrived at her home in Chappaqua shortly before 2 p.m.

Doctors said Sunday that pneumonia is commonly treated quickly and effectively with antibiotics.
