Obama campaigns for Clinton, says Putin is

Hillary Clinton's campaign released Wednesday new information about the former secretary of state's health, days after she was diagnosed with pneumonia.

The statement released today said a chest CT scan was performed on Clinton last Friday, the results of which revealed pneumonia.

Concerns over Clinton's health were raised after video showed she seemingly "collapsed" as she was leaving a 9/11 memorial event early due to "overheating".

Clinton, 68, has blood pressure of 100 over 70 - within healthy levels and not signaling the need for any medications.

Almost half of American adults are "very concerned" about two issues that have hounded Hillary Clinton's presidential campaign this year: her use of a private email server to conduct government business and donations to her family's charitable foundation, according to a Reuters/Ipsos opinion poll released on Wednesday.

Clinton's medical report comes out on the same day as her Republican rival, Donald Trump, recorded an interview with Dr. Mehmet Oz, which will be aired Thursday and will feature the candidate's "very specific" medical details. John McCain released more than a thousand pages of medical records to show he was cancer-free and fit to serve as president. Her staff had planned to bring their children in to meet Elmo and Clinton didn't want to disappoint the kids. It said that Oz, who focuses heavily on obesity, declared Trump "slightly overweight" (Trump is roughly 6-foot-2.) That height and weight amount to a body mass index of more than 34.3, which the National Institutes of Health classifies as "obese".

At the same time, Clinton has criticized Donald Trump for releasing a letter from his doctor earlier a year ago, which contained virtually no objective health information. Clinton takes medication for an underactive thyroid, which has been stable for years, Clarinex for her allergies, a vitamin B12 supplement and the blood thinner Coumadin following a 2012 blood clot in her head.

"But I do not go around saying that is my role model".

Vladimir Putin has been accused of a poison plot against Hillary Clinton "It is possible she is being poisoned". "And yet because he says it over and over and over again, the press just gives up", Mr Obama said.

The Democratic vice presidential nominee is in "overall excellent health", congressional attending physician Dr. Brian Monahan wrote in a letter released by the Clinton campaign Wednesday.

She is to return to the campaign trail on Thursday, her spokesman Nick Merrill said Tuesday evening.

Bardack did the right tests for her pneumonia and "she's being treated appropriately", said Dr. Mark Creager, director of the Dartmouth-Hitchkock heart and vascular center in Lebanon, New Hampshire, and a past president of the American Heart Association. The letter said Kaine has never smoked and his alcohol use is "modest". "It would appear that her seasonal allergies and upper respiratory infection worsened into a bacterial pneumonia", she says. And despite leading in the polls, she remains deeply disliked by a big chunk of the electorate.

"Obviously I should have gotten some rest sooner", Clinton said on CNN's Anderson Cooper 360 on Monday.

Doctors said the Levaquin, which she is taking to treat her pneumonia, is an excellent and appropriate treatment.
