US Election update: Clinton campaign discloses candidate's full health details

Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton's campaign released comprehensive updates regarding her health condition on Wednesday. The health update describes the illness as "mild and non-contagious pneumonia."

According to Dr. Lisa Bardack, Clinton's personal physician, "she is recovering well with antibiotics and rest." She even described this Democratic Presidential nominee as "healthy and fit to serve."

Clinton's pneumonia diagnosis followed her abrupt exit during New York City's 9/11 memorial service. She was spotted leaving the venue as she stumbled upon being assisted by her Secret Service detail into a van. The candidate's diagnosis of the disease hours after the accident led her to rest from the campaign trail for a few days.

Dr. Bardack's findings, which she issued in her comprehensive report, detected a "small" sign of pneumonia in her lung's right middle lobe. She described it as non-contagious and mild. The report also noted Clinton's known intake of blood thinner Coumadin and thyroid medication.

The report further elaborated that Clinton is taking Levaquin and Clarinex to treat the bacterial infection that's causing the pneumonia. Bardack noted that Clinton "continues to improve," as other health indicators of the former State Secretary are well within the normal range such as her heart rate, blood pressure, and cholesterol level.

The physician also noted that Hillary Clinton is in "excellent mental condition."

Meanwhile, the campaign for the US elections continues with Clinton and Trump neck-on-neck in the polls. Hillary Clinton dismissed the negative publicity going around the Internet about her medical condition as "wacky theories".

A copy of Dr. Bardack's comprehensive report on Clinton was even published online to prove that she is indeed "fit to serve" the public. This, of course, serves as great news to her family and supporters. However, that may not be the case for rival and Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump's camp, which has been vocal in questioning the former New York Senator's fitness for the presidency.
