WASHINGTON ― Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton made the most of her recent bout with pneumonia on Friday, quipping that her illness “finally got some Republicans interested in women’s health.”

“I’m also thrilled to be back on the campaign trail,” Clinton said at the Black Women’s Agenda Workshop in Washington, D.C. “As the world knows, I was a little under the weather recently. The good news is my pneumonia finally got some Republicans interested in women’s health!”

Clinton sounded and appeared healthy at the event, despite weeks of conspiracy theories about her health and headlines claiming there’s “something seriously wrong” with her that could affect her ability to take on the duties of president. Conservatives who had been indulging in wild rumors about Clinton’s health ― everything from brain damage to Parkinson’s Disease ― seemed momentarily validated when the former secretary of state suffered a dizzy spell at a Sept. 11 memorial event last week and had to leave the event to recover.

While her campaign initially claimed that she “overheated,” it later admitted the candidate had been diagnosed with pneumonia and apologized for the lack of transparency.
