‘I didn’t think it was a big deal,’ Clinton says of pneumonia bout
By Alana Wise and Jeff Mason WASHINGTON (Reuters) – Democrat Hillary Clinton said on Monday she could resume presidential campaigning in a couple of days after a bout of pneumonia that she initially had not believed was "that big a deal." Clinton's health scare after she almost collapsed at an event on Sunday, causing her to cancel some campaign trips, revived concerns about a tendency toward secrecy that has dogged her campaign, and underscored perennial worries about the medical fitness of candidates for one of the world&039;s most demanding jobs. "I just didn&039;t think it was going to be that big a deal." Her campaign acknowledged on Monday it may have been too slow disclosing her pneumonia diagnosis after she nearly fainted at a New York memorial ceremony for the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks.
