Controversy surrounding Hillary Clinton collapse - rumours emerge about body double

Democratic Presidential candidate Hillary Clinton's collapse at a 9/11 ceremony in New York has not only grabbed global headlines but has also given rise to speculation about the use of a body double as well as fueling rumours about her health.
This has been reported in nzherald.co.nz dated 13 September 2016.

The conspiracy theory that she was using a body double came up because the footage of her collapse shows her being supported by aides and secret service agents before she loses her footing and gets into a waiting car. Subsequently, she was shifted to her daughter Chelsea's apartment to recover and her team confirming the presidential hopeful was suffering from pneumonia.
However, soon afterwards, she was seen pictured and waving to reporters as she left - she was insisting she felt great. Incidentally, her team intentionally avoided the emergency room probably to conceal details of her medical treatment. Obviously, conspiracy theorists seized the opportunity to speculate that Clinton's quick recovery was all down to a body double and #ClintonsBodyDouble soon began trending on Twitter.

Hillary Clinton has pneumonia - she fell ill at September 11 memorial

Hillary Clinton is the Democratic candidate for the race to the White House but she is suffering from pneumonia and had to cancel her proposed trip to California. Her personal doctor has clarified that she fell ill at a September 11 memorial and, this episode with renewed focus on her health comes less than two months before the election.
Hilary Clinton (68) canceled a trip she was scheduled to take to California for fundraising and other campaign events and further details of her itinerary have not been disclosed.
This has been reported in telegraphindia.com dated 12 September 2016.

It seems she suddenly fell ill during the memorial service on the occasion of 15 years of 9/11. She appeared to sway and her knees buckled before she was assisted into a motorcade and she left the memorial early. Once back home, she underwent a medical examination. Her doctor said in a statement that she has been experiencing a cough related to allergies and that an examination on Friday showed it was pneumonia.
She was, therefore, put on antibiotics and advised to rest and modify her schedule.
Incidentally, Clinton's pneumonia diagnosis is at a crucial time in the White House race against Republican rival Donald Trump because the first of three presidential debates is on September 26 and the election is on November 8.
