Hillary Clinton, the Democratic candidate for the U.S. presidency, resumed her campaign activities on Thursday, September 25, after a brief illness and a three-day rest prescribed by her doctor. Clinton's campaign released a detailed report on her health status coinciding with her return to the race, stating that more details regarding her medical history would be added soon. These days, the health of presidential candidates in the U.S. has overshadowed other issues, while her Democratic rival, Donald Trump, only provided a short one-page medical report on Thursday. This medical report, presented during a television show featuring Dr. Oz, a Turkish-American doctor who is also a TV personality, stated that the New York Republican candidate is 190 cm tall and weighs 107 kg, suffering from bad cholesterol, fatty acids, high blood pressure, and blood sugar issues. On Thursday morning, at the start of her return to campaign activities, Clinton described her condition as very satisfactory in an interview with an online media outlet focused on African Americans in New York, stating that her rival is facing many questions. Clinton said, 'Donald Trump must answer many questions, including the reason for Russia's interference in the U.S. election process, as if he is hand in hand with Kremlin officials and has many ties with Vladimir Putin.' She added, 'In addition to me, Trump's Republican allies with deep experiences in foreign policy and national security, as well as NATO leaders, share similar conclusions. Therefore, I will continue to sound the alarm about Russia's influence and interference and will ask who Trump's business partners really are.' However, Donald Trump continues to emphasize what he calls Hillary Clinton's physical and mental inability to take on the responsibilities of the presidency. On Wednesday, at a gathering of Republicans in Ohio, Trump accused his rival of lying and stated that she is also lying about her health status. The Republican candidate has faced significant criticism for not disclosing details about his personal health status and tax records. Paul Ryan, the Republican Speaker of the House of Representatives, stated on Thursday in an interview with media representatives that he has released details of his tax records and that Donald Trump should follow suit, but the Associated Press reported that the Republican candidate will refrain from releasing his tax records until they are reviewed by the tax authority.
