‘Fit to serve’: Clinton back on campaign trail after releasing health info
Democratic nominee’s doctor says she is recovering well from her recent bout of pneumonia
Clinton’s campaign responded with a new letter from her doctor on Wednesday declaring her “fit to serve” as president and recovering well from her recent illness. The letter – the first substantial update on her health in more than a year – details the medications she is taking, her cholesterol levels and other results from a physical exam.
In keeping with Trump’s unusual approach to transparency, the Republican handed over a one-page summary of his recent exam to Dr Mehmet Oz while taping an episode of Oz’s show. A release from the show said “Dr Oz took Mr Trump though a full review of his systems”, including his nervous system, cardiovascular health, prostate health and family medical history.
The show is due to air on Thursday. Trump’s campaign has not made a copy of the summary public ahead of the airing, nor is it certain he will do so after.
