Clinton wants to get back to campiagns after bout with pneumonia

Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton has waved aside fears over her health saying she could resume presidential campaigning in a couple of days following an announcement by her personal doctor that she has been diagnosed with Pneumonia.

Fears over her health were raised when a video was posted on social media, apparently showing Clinton stumbling and her knees buckling, before being helped by aides into a black van leaving the site of the September 11, 2001 attack in New York.

“Well, it will be in the next couple of days. … I just want to get this over and done with and get back on the trail as soon as possible,” she said in an interview on CNN on Monday night, adding she had ignored doctor’s orders to rest.

“I just didn’t think it was going to be that big a deal”, she stated.
