Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton was diagnosed with pneumonia on Friday and was put on antibiotics and recommended by her doctor to rest and modify her schedule, according to The New York Times. She had abruptly left the 9/11 memorial held at ground zero in New York on Sunday morning after feeling dehydrated.
Her spokesman Nick Merrill said that Clinton attended the ceremony for about an hour-and-a-half after which "she felt overheated so departed to go to her daughter's apartment, and is feeling much better."
After about an hour and 45 minutes at her daughter Chelsea's home, she came out waving to the onlookers and reporters.
"I'm feeling great," she said. "It's a beautiful day in New York."
The temperature in the city at the time was in higher 70s, with moderate to high humidity.
The same day, her physician, Dr. Lisa R. Bardack, said that Clinton was "rehydrated and recovering nicely."
As the secretary of state, she generally has a busy travel routine.
Bardack released Clinton's medical report in 2015, which said that she maintains an overall good health.
The report also mentioned that she takes blood-thinners to prevent clots on long flights.
Trump was also attending the Sunday ceremony. When he was asked about Clinton's health issue, he said, "I don't know anything."
