The U.S. presidential candidate from Democrats, former U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton canceled a trip to California within the election campaign due to pneumonia.

According to the Clinton campaign, a trip to California was to be held on September 12 and 13.

Earlier it was reported that the personal doctor of the candidate Clinton diagnosed pneumonia before a ceremony in memory of the victims of 9/11 terrorist attack which she unexpectedly left because of sickness, Reuters reports.

Dr Lisa Bardack 's statement said she was now re-hydrated and "recovering nicely".

"Secretary Clinton has been experiencing a cough related to allergies. On Friday, during follow-up evaluation of her prolonged cough, she was diagnosed with pneumonia," Dr Bardack's statement said.

"She was put on antibiotics, and advised to rest and modify her schedule," it went on.

Her Republican opponents have queried her physical fitness, with the presidential candidate Donald Trump telling supporters last month she "lacks the mental and physical stamina" to serve as president and fight Islamic State militants, BBC writes.

However, Trump has banned the members of his staff to make any negative statements about the deteriorating state of health of his rival Clinton. Interestingly enough the scandalous billionaire promised "to respect what has happened." He did not comment on the situation, even in social networks.

Many do not exclude that Clinton's health problems may influence on her campaign and eventually on the final results of the elections.
