    46% humidity when the temperature is in the 70's is low. When I checked hours later it was 81 degrees with 36% humidity, right now it's 85 with 32% humidity.

    In Houston, we'd kill for that given that we're dealing with 90 degrees and 53% humidity on a day that we don't consider terribly humid.

    You're a ****ing idiot. Pneumonia is something any normal person can get. Its not a chronic condition. Its either a viral or bacterial infection of the lung parenchyma. COPD? Cancer? Yea that is something you can tout as that. Stop acting like a health professional, basic reasoning along the rest of the population should be the goal of trump supporters.

    First of all I doubt it's even pneumonia, or if it is it's the symptom of something more serious.

    and yes pneumonia at 70 years of age is pretty serious. People die of pneumonia at that age. Keep being delusional though.

    That's what people said when they suggested she was having health problems initially.

    Sure, and others are tired of the constant lies to where they have to play doctor online in order to get close to the truth.

    More than 50,000 people die in the US every year from pneumonia, so it's not something to take lightly.

    I'm tired of being lied to. Allergies to heat to pneumonia. Her campaign had a serious problem with credibility before this.

    Oh cool a google search about "chronic pneumonia" and and found a 1992 article which you probably didn't care to read. That article defines it as >6wks. Why? Because typical community acquired pneumonia (not atypical ---"walking pneumonia") is serious enough for people to sometimes require hospitalization and can even be fatal. You clear it, or you simply goto the doctor get a course of antibiotics. Now it could be viral, atypical or both --depending on how you define it, but the person is far less symptomatic and sometimes doesn't show any signs sometimes until you do a CXR which is why you call it "walking pneumonia."

    Recurrent pneumonia or pneumonia that lasts a very long time? Well, your first question has to be was it even the same infection? Did your body clear it and just get infected with something else? Often times this is the case in people that are immunologically depressed (aka HIV, congenital immunodefficiency conditions) because well...you can't clear the infection so its pretty logical it's going to linger. Oh and guess what... that's exactly what the one paragraph abstract says in the end. Are you going to find a specific case or <0.1% of people that don't fit the criteria for a typical course? Sure. The point is, and something you very well knew, is that an acute infection like this that is taken care of easily with antibiotics is nothing like COPD or other chronic conditions. She'll be ok in a week.

    36,000 people die every year of the flu.

    Crazy right? Not really, look at the age group and predisposing health conditions.

    Maybe because her doctor said she was dehydrated and suffering from the heat. Since she's a presidential candidate and got weak in the knees today while standing in the heat they wanted to be safe.

    I'm not there. I'm not a doctor. I have no idea. I don't think we need any armchair doctors making diagnosis from their computer keyboards. I'll just let the real professionals deal with it.

    Let us know when you get a medical degree. Until then, leave it to professionals.

    Until you get a medical degree, you have to believe all of those lies as they come in.
