breaking news coverage continues here on msnbc this hour. hillary clinton's scheduled trip to california tomorrow may be off after a health issue today. this morning, hillary clinton leaving the 9/11 ceremony early after her campaign saying she started to feel overheated. after which clinton appeared unstable and she was helped into a van. she was taken to her daughter chels chelsea's apartment nearby after she was moved into this van here. as you can see, a little unstable getting in after they
4:01 pm
had opened those two doors. just before noon today, then she walked out of had her daughter chelsea clinton's apartment, waving to onlookers, questions were asked and she did not answer them all, but was able to and as you see this here, a young girl runs over to her, then for a photo-op, secretary clinton then gets into a car. this is what she said and when she was there in front of reporters. take a listen. >> how are you feeling, secretary clinton? are you feeling better? >> yes, thank you, very much. thank you. >> and then back in and she went to her residence in chappaqua, new york. hillary clinton's doctor then releasing a statement after conducting an exam of the nominee. and that statement that we received here at msnbc coming in, within the last couple of hours or so, it revealed that
4:02 pm
secretary clinton had been diagnosed with pneumonia. and that happened on friday. and her health issues today likely stemmed from that. let's go right to nbc's morgan radford in chappaqua, new york. first, let's talk about what else was said from her doctor in this statement. >> her doctor released this statement this evening. she said secretary clinton was experiencing a cough related to allergies. she was diagnosed with pneumonia, she was put on antibiotics and advised to rest and modify her schedule. while this morning's event she became overheated and dehydrated. i have just examined her and she is now rehydrated and recovering nicely. that recovery happening here in chappaqua, richard, up the street. that's where her home is. she shares that home with former president bill clinton. they lived there since 2000, since they left the white house. today we saw her come in at
4:03 pm
1:13, with her motorcade, she had two unmarked cars following behind her and local law enforcement was also here to usher her into that residence. as you mentioned, she appeared unsteady earlier today and needed to rely on secret service and aides to help her physically get back into the traveling van. beforehand, she appeared to be greeting a lot of the victims, appeared to be steady and also appeared to be steady when leaving her daughter chelsea clinton's manhattan home. other people who were at that event like representative crowley said it was so hot and uncomfortable that even senator chuck schumer was sweating through what was once a light blue shirt and then suddenly became dark blue because the humidity was just so strong. he described the heat himself as pretty excessive and uncomfortable. and that's what we're hearing today. we're here in chappaqua where she's now resting ahead of tomorrow's scheduled events. not clear whether or not events are going to continue. she's scheduled to be in san francisco tomorrow evening for a
4:04 pm
fund-raiser event and the following day, she has not one but two fund-raising events in los angeles. >> we're hearing from senior aide, the possibility of them re-adjusting that schedule is being discussed at the moment with the campaign. what is happening there at chappaqua, at the residence, at this moment, compared to what you saw earlier when you were first on the scene? >> earlier a little activity, secret service agents around, orange blockades where you couldn't get to that cul-de-sac where she lives. she lives on the left-hand side of a private cul-de-sac, we couldn't get through there. you could see secret service agents and local law enforcement that were coming inside and patrolling that area and that is before she came again with that motorcade this afternoon. so far here, residents are wondering what happened as is a lot of the press corps, trying to keep apprised of the status of her health. >> you were mentioning, morgan, about the situation this morning, and we were looking at video earlier talking to rehema
4:05 pm
ellis who was at ground zero and reporting at ground zero for us moments ago. you could see the trees moving in the background at this hour, it is 7:00 in the evening. but this morning, the video we have been showing you've seen many a time too, the tree in that video pretty much not moving at all. 81 degrees, humid as you're describing and almost no wind movement whatsoever. when we're looking at the video from earlier, do we understand whether there was some sort of medical capability if you will. we talked about it earlier. the secret service, it is believed, have some emt training. we know the president does have a doctor at hand when traveling. this is not the case. this is a democratic nominee. if you were the entourage and the ability to address any potential medical concerns from
4:06 pm
secretary clinton. >> secretary clinton doesn't travel with a doctor at all times. her doctor released this statement saying not only had she been having this cough earlier, but on friday she was re-evaluated and that's when they decided she had pneumonia and has been taking antibiotics. part of this was an issue of rehydration. but i want to read you a statement from her spokeswoman who said that today hillary clinton has released a detailed medical record showing her to be in excellent health. as her health is front and center, the last crucial weeks leading up to this campaign, her campaign and her team is clearly making the statement she is fit, she's fit to be president, and that she is healthy, but this was a slip because frankly she was feeling overheated according to her campaign. >> morgan radford in front of the clinton residence.
4:07 pm
now to luciana, as morgan was telling us, sharing from one of the spokespeople from the clinton campaign, how have they handled the last 24 hours, you think? >> it has been a very busy 24 hours, certainly. we had the whole basket of deplorables comment, the events of today. today there was a gap of 90 minutes where the press didn't know where she was or what was going on. part of that is because we don't have protective pools on either candidate. this is an issue for both of them. at this point in elections you might have a protective pool so a group of reporters that follow the candidates around, just in case something like this happens. we don't have that right now. this is something that the press has been pushing for very strongly. it is something that we feel is necessary so that people know what is going on with the campaigns and don't have gaps where everybody is left going where is the candidate? >> not typical compared to previous cycles you've been involved in. >> at this point, in most cycles
4:08 pm
we would expect to have this kind of a protective pool to be able to watch the candidates closely. it is after labor day, less than two months out from the election, at the point where races are tightening and the last undecideds are making up their minds. information is more crucial than ever at this point. >> you as a journalist, myself as well, we look at these details coming out, hour by hour, by hour, by hour, you mention the 90 minutes, certainly reporters that they do want to know what is happening, that is their job. all put into context, though, when you step back and hear that undecided voter, you're looking at what happened today, and the way that it was handled today, how do you believe that that group that both candidates are looking at will be assessed, how will they look at how she was unstable moving into the van and then the information coming out and then now getting the headline on a sunday, mind you,
4:09 pm
around 5:00. that she was diagnosed with pneumonia, on a friday, two days before then. >> this is where my bias as a journalist shows i'm always in favor of transparency. i think what the campaign can do to head this off and any other incidents is to really release information as we have it. and be clear and transparent about this from the beginning. if we had known she had pneumonia when this started, people wouldn't have had to speculate and toss out 5 million different possibilities with their medical degree from cracker jack boxes. we know she's been diagnosed with pneumonia, on antibiotics, maybe this is affecting her. this is about both campaigns. i'm not saying this just with regard to one candidate or the other. we want this from everyone. >> four paragraphs were released for donald trump in terms of his health condition and where he's at. and we have four or five pages from secretary clinton, but there could be more as is now
4:10 pm
clearly going to be a question moving forward for at least a couple of mini cycles in our news cycle as we look at this day to day. as she was coming forward, after she left her daughter's apartment, chelsea clinton's apartment there in new york city, a lot of reporters, a lot of individuals there saying, how are you feeling? they hoped as any good person would of another good person, that they would be getting better and they would not have any serious medical condition, this young girl expressing that desire from person to person, right? but should secretary clinton or did she miss an opportunity to just come out and take a couple of questions, from those who were there, from the press, for some of the folks as, for instance, the people behind in this picture here, if they were curious how she was doing? should she have addressed them? >> this would have been a great opportunity for her to get out and say, i am feeling better
4:11 pm
now, i am rehydrated. but i was diagnosed with pneumonia, we know this. and so i need to be careful in certain circumstances and i'll be re-examining my schedule and looking toward resting and recuperating. they already knew she had pneumonia. this is not something that the campaign discovered today. they pretty much already had some idea of what was going on. it could have had everything communicated much more quickly in a way that would have caught out some of these people you see just saying, well, clearly it is, this obscure medical malady we never heard of. >> dr. lisa bardack, said she advised secretary clinton to rest and modify her schedule and we're hering an hour and 15 minutes ago, per a senior aide that the california trip that she was to attend tomorrow is
4:12 pm
very much in question as they discuss whether to travel or not here. so there is -- this is a very busy time. every single hour is scheduled. if she does pull away for a day or two, this will hurt, if you will, the progress so important for her as we look at the polls. they start to really tighten. >> i think what would hurt her more is her pneumonia lingering for two weeks and a hacking cough and more dizzy spells on the trail. right now the campaign has to sit down and do a calculus and say we need her to be up and running and campaigning as quickly as possible. but needs to be done in such a way that this doesn't linger, doesn't turn into something chronic and she can recover and put her best face and best foot forward for the voters as quickly as possible. >> anything in recent history that this reminds you of? >> a lost thit of things this c
4:13 pm
compared to. candidates and politicians get sick. they're human. like the rest of us. people get the sniffles. people get pneumonia. sometimes people have something more serious. this has happened before. this is not the first time in the history of the world that a candidate or a politician has actually gotten sick. >> we had heads of state get sick on stage or during speeches or after and we have seen it unfortunately -- >> around other people, yes. >> that's correct. so everybody hopes, of course, that secretary clinton feels petter pet petter better as the days go by. thank you. we'll stay on this developing story at this hour, secretary clinton being diagnosed with pneumonia. more coverage on this breaking news for you right here. we'll talk to a physician coming up to get an understanding of perhaps what exactly this symptoms are that secretary clinton is battling right now. mom,

4:17 pm
both presidential candidates attended a memorial event at ground zero today. hillary clinton left early after feeling overheated as her campaign stated. her doctor releasing a statement after examining her at her chappaqua home this afternoon after secretary clinton returned to her home, secretary clinton has been experiencing a cough related to allergies. on friday, she was diagnosed with pneumonia, put on antibiotics and advised to rest and modify her schedule. while at this morning's event she became overheated and dehydrated, i have just examined her and she is now rehydrated and recovering nicely. as you do talk about this here, professor and doctor, and you address the issue of pneumonia, this is a fairly common
4:18 pm
affliction according to new york times, they're saying five to ten million people get pneumonia each and every year. you talk about the ten million cases there is all sorts of different flavors, if you will, of this pneumonia. >> bacterial pneumonia, viral pneumonia. some people can get pneumonia from swallowing their own acid or other causes. bacterial pneumonia responds to antibiotics, but viral pneumonia may not respond. >> what i found interesting in our discussions so far today, there is five to 10 million potential cases each year. a million are hospitalized. that leaves a lot of cases that are never addressed in a medical facility. >> exactly.
4:19 pm
a person could be evaluated in the er or somewhere else but may not need to be hospitalized. if you're someone already sick, canc, a smoker, some other debilitating condition and concerned you may not be able to fight this on your home and stay hydrated, they might hospitalize you. >> you brought up there are many who do have pneumonia and never diagnosed. >> that's true. some people. you have to get checked out to get diagnosed. if you have viral pneumonia, fighting it off or lasting through it, for some people they may be able to do that if they have a strong immune system without seeing the doctor. that's not what we recommend. we recommend getting evaluated and checked out if you have symptoms like cough or feel like fainting, better to make sure there is nothing more serious. >> are the symptoms just like a bad cold? or bad flu? how might one know that distinction?
4:20 pm
>> it is hard to sometimes separate out let's say the flu from a pneumonia. they can be very severe. they could have a cough, cold-like symptoms. most likely the things you worry about are if someone has trouble breathing. those are the things that push you more towards getting an evaluation or high fever. because she had some dizziness or almost fainted, that makes it more concerning not just for pneumonia, but other things you might worry about at least that we did worry about initially. >> symptoms related to pneumonia consistent with what we saw so far today, that instability moving into the van? >> by itself it is not related to pneumonia, but if you have dehydration in between, then, yes, you could be unsteady or feel unstable. >> especially given hot temperatures and which is what we saw today at ground zero. stand by. i want to go to rehema ellis was there earlier today and still there today. and has been reported by you
4:21 pm
here, it was not necessarily a cool day at all. and there was not much wind. >> no. it is very much not like it is right now. it has been windy. pardon me. it has been windy and the temperature dropping now. but the overnight temperature from saturday into sunday was 81 degrees. and it was very humid out here. i have to tell you. the air was stifling. that was the high. overnight of 81, as we moved into the day. and so those were the conditions that we all were coming to, secretary clinton and all of those who were at the tribute this afternoon -- this morning to remember the victims of 9/11. they were standing for the most part, standing for an hour, probably more. and in dark clothing, probably not having the opportunity to get water or to sit down.
4:22 pm
and it could have been something that contributed to her being uncomfortable. it was very humid today. >> and the video of that we were looking at, in close proximity too, among a lot of individuals there at ground zero. >> absolutely. shoulder to shoulder. now crowded together with people packed into a space, it is humid, it is hot. dark clothes, long sleeves, heavy material. it makes you uncomfortable. if secretary clinton was not feeling well to begin with, na was a bad way to start the day. that on top of the conditions being not very good. >> yeah dark clothing appropriate given the commemoration happening today. speaking of which, rehema, you were there covering what is such an important event. that's why we had both the nominees there, right? they were remembering what is so important to this country on september 11th, each and every
4:23 pm
year, this the 15th anniversary and how did that memorial event go? >> it went like it has gone for the last 14 years previously. that is this is a very solemn time. this is ground that was considered hallowed ground where the twin towers came down. and more than 3,000 people lost their lives in this tragedy of 9/11. and the largest group of people died here in new york. and it was an opportunity, once again, for people to come together to remember and honor all those beautiful lives that were lost. >> today at ground zero, a solemn tribute. >> we carry your heart in our hearts, joe. >> dad, the whole family misses you. >> among those lost, hundreds of first responders.
4:24 pm
>> you will never be forgotten. >> on 9/11 the nation came together. >> jerry was 10 when his father died. today he works with children of other tragedies. >> sometimes the bad things that happen in our lives put us on the path to where we should be going to help others as many have helped me. ps, i love you, dad. ♪ >> at the pentagon, president obama remembered the fallen. >> we remember and we will never forget the nearly 3,000 beautiful lives taken from us so cruelly. including 184 men, women and children here. ♪ o beautiful >> in shanksville, pennsylvania, hundreds more came together. >> we gather today to honor the heroes of flight 93, who when the skies over this field gave their lives in order to thwart an attack on the united states capitol. >> along with remembrance, a day of solidarity and service, back
4:25 pm
in new york thousands of volunteers packed meals for those in need. >> see so many people just putting aside their differences and coming together for this shows, like, the unity that has come for something bad and how people tried to change it. >> on a personal note, i was working down here for nbc news on 9/11. and in my mind's eye i can still see the dazed faces of people covered in soot and ashes and i remember the fear that they had because i was afraid too. 9/11 was a terribly dark day and the terrorists tried when they toppled the buildings here, they tried to topple america's spirit, but i have to tell you, this area could not be more vibrant. and when i look at the one world trade center behind me, 102 stories that has risen out of the ashes, for me, it is a sparkling symbol that the terrorists failed. and america's spirit and can do
4:26 pm
spirit is more alive than ever. richard? >> rehema, no doubt. as you've been down there throughout the years reporting on these commemoration anniversaries, you have conversations with those who are related to victims, related to survivors and survivors themselves. what conversation today stood out to you that reminds you of this resilience that you just described? >> i spoke with a gentleman here who lost his son on 9/11. and i must tell you, while i could see tears well up in his eyes and for a moment they welled up in mine too, this man was able to smile because he said he remembered his son lovingly, and also as a result of his son's vibrant spirit, he's now taking on the task of helping other people to make certain they never forget what happened here. he says it is a calling for him, and he feels good about it. he knows it is exactly what his
4:27 pm
son would want him to do. he is living and he's a stunning, stunning tribute to his son's memory and that he says i am living a full life for him. i think that symbolizes what so many other people are trying to do, children who were born then who are coming of age, people who have gone to school, graduated, gotten married and some who had children of their own, and they are remembering the bad times, the sad times, but also what those people meant to them, and they meant life and so they're going on and having as full a life as they possibly can. >> rehema, we're always remembered, that day, how we were all together and that's certainly one of the benefits of this stories that you told us today. rehema ellis at ground zero, thank you so much. we'll be right back.

4:31 pm
the nominee this afternoon. that exam revealing that secretary clinton had been diagnosed with pneumonia on friday. and that her health issues at 9/11 memorial event this morning, likely stemmed from that diagnosis or that sickness. let's go to nbc's morgan radford in chappaqua, new york. that statement in full really describing some of the details we didn't have earlier. that is that secretary clinton did have a cough related to allergies according to dr. lisa bardack, that is secretary clinton's doctor. her physician. then in that statement, that's where we got that piece of information new to us today that on friday during a follow-up evaluation of that pro longed cough related to allergies, that she was diagnosed with pneumonia
4:32 pm
and then she was put on antibiotics at that time and advised to rest and modify her schedule. that was a portion of that statement that came from dr. lisa bardack. now to morgan radford, on top of this story for us there in chappaqua. there, as secretary clinton, you know, as she was moved from 9/11, she made her way to her home there in new york. you were there, and, morgan, what was the sense of the energy around this? were there a lot of vehicles, a rush or just a matter of step by step by step? >> secret service and local law enforcement were here to protect her home and also usher her inside the cul-de-sac at the home she shares with former president bill clinton. they lived here since they left 1600 pennsylvania avenue in 2000 and this is where they spend their time when in new york. it is where she's resting and recovering today. i want to go back to the
4:33 pm
statement from her doctor saying that secretary clinton has been experiencing a cough related to allergies. on friday, during a follow-up evaluation she was diagnosed with pneumonia. at this morning's event she became overheated and dehydrated. i examined her and she's rehydrated and recovering nicely. we are monitoring her health and her schedule. she was scheduled to be in san francisco tomorrow evening for a fund-raiser and then moved down to southern california to los angeles for two events on tuesday. we're unclear whether or not that's going to stay according to schedule or if she's going to stay here and recover. i also want to take you back to what happened earlier this morning, that's when she was appearing unsteady and what caused her to come here and now recover. >> morgan radford live for us in chappaqua, new york. thank you for your reporting. we also have some new polls out today on the 2016 race for the white house. we're getting a better sense of
4:34 pm
how the presidential nominees are being perceived by voters after nbc's commander in chief forum. the new abc news/washington post poll, it was taken before and after the forum. the poll is showi ining 60% of voters feel hillary clinton is qualified to serve as president. 36% of voters say donald trump is qualified to serve. as donald trump struggles to break out of one of his biggest vulnerabilities as expressed there, secretary clinton is opening up some new vulnerabilities, making these comments about trump supporters at a fund-raiser friday night in new york city. take a listen. all right. in those statements -- in that statement, that secretary clinton had made, she referred to half of trump supporters as part of the basket of deplorables. and then she went on to be more specific, to say that those individuals that were in that
4:35 pm
basket of deplorables were racists, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic, islamophobic and then corrected herself after that statement. but we now have that tape. i'll show you the tape and we'll follow on from there. >> you could put half of trump's supporters into what i call the basket of deplorables. the racists, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic, islamophobic, you name it. and unfortunately there are people like that. and he has lifted them up. some of those folks, they are irredeemable, but thankfully they are not america. >> and then in a statement yesterday, that we received, it said that she regrets using the word half to describe that basket of deplorables. walking back that specific word use in her statement that she had made at the fund-raiser.
4:36 pm
now i want to bring in luciana lopez. as it works here, that is almost -- seems like a couple of days ago, based on what you and i are talking about today with regard to secretary clinton's health question and her feeling unstable earlier on today. when we just look at the basket of deplorables, though, as has been said, it really is the question of how long will that be remembered? >> i think the question is how long will that be remembered, particularly when we are having lightning fast news cycles and i think how deeply will that comment resonate. she had a number of people who were actually supporting her for that comment as well. plenty of people who are worried that there have been racist or sexist or just some really kind of awful things said in this election cycle. so there were plenty of people on twitter out there saying, yes, call out racism and bigotry when you see it as well. this is the kind of comment
4:37 pm
that, you know, if you were a firm trump supporter beforehand, you're probably still going to be a firm trump supporter. not convinced this will have any effect beyond just a day or two. >> i want to move on to the commander in chief forum, i was sharing the poll numbers looking at from the abc news/washington post poll and the question about temperament, that's the word used by both sides so far. we look at donald trump's biggest hurdle to overcome, it does appear that that 50% saying that, you know, in terms of who do you trust more to handle terrorism, hillary clinton comes out ahead of donald trump. i mentioned earlier that 60% to 36% number qualified to serve as president. is this something that donald trump can turn around at this point? >> i think at this point donald trump is the candidate that he is. i think people who are expecting
4:38 pm
some sort of grand pivot are probably going to be disappointed. i think what donald trump can do is continue to talk about his policies and continue to talk about his campaign and put himself out there and put himself forward and really look at those voters who are undecided and that is the voters who are persuadable one way or the other. that's not the majority of voters. there is a sliver of people, those are the people who decide this election, especially in swing states. >> on the flip side, then, you look at these undecideds, in the swing states, something that secretary clinton can really leverage, it is a big win for her when we look at both of the numbers. >> well, she really needs to capitalize that and she needs to keep that momentum going. we're going to be going into a very intense phase of campaigning. this is the time of year when as it gets closer, people are really thinking, like, if i'm undecided, really need to be making up my mind. what happens in these next two months carries a lot of punch, more than -- more punch than what happened a year ago, a year and a half ago, more punch than
4:39 pm
even what happened in the primaries because this is when most people are really saying, okay, i got to make an informed decision, make sure i have the right information to make the right choice. >> what don't we know, though, about these two candidates, and given that familiarity with both of them, they do have to come out with big, bright, bold statements, potentially here, to really breakthrough. >> there is a lot we still don't know, even though we have known them for so long. i'll start with the obvious. we haven't seen trump's tax returns. we have seen hillary clinton's and tax returns from presidential candidates for decades now. we have not seen trump's tax returns. still huge question marks there around his finances and that's something that is typically pretty standard for a presidential campaign. we're going to learn a lot more about the candidates in the next couple of months and how they handle the day to day minutia of intense campaign pressure. once we have protective pools up, which i hope is soon for
4:40 pm
both candidates, we'll see how they handle the day to day when something like this happens today, what happened in that 90 minutes we weren't there. those are questions that we will hopefully have answers for in the next less than 60 days now, before we choose a new president. >> maybe sooner. more information about their health records as you were saying based on what happened today, from both sides, and, again, the trump campaign reviewing -- releasing very little information about his health records so far. thank you for being with us on this sunday. yeoman's work. thank you so much. >> thank you. >> we'll be back with more of our breaking news coverage and hillary clinton's health history and her doctor saying she has pneumonia, right here on msnbc, the place for politics. i had that dream again -- that i was on the icelandic game show. and everyone knows me for discounts, like safe driver and paperless billing. but nobody knows the box behind the discounts. oh, it's like my father always told me -- "put that down. that's expensive." of course i save people an average of nearly $600,

a few miles away. then just before noon, clinton emerged unassisted, smiling. >> it is a beautiful day in new york. and sheing she fe insaying she , clinton even stopping to greet a child before getting into her van and heading back to her home and husband bill in chappaqua. clinton supporter and congressman joe crowley also attended the memorial and said she seemed perfectly normal. >> i was standing right behind secretary clinton and just to her left, and it was incredibly stifling, very hot. >> then late today, clinton's pneumonia diagnosis was announced, saying it can be beaten quickly if treated properly. >> if she's hydrated now, and she's taking the medications she is supposed to be, she should be good to go. >> the clinton campaign tells nbc news, the former secretary of state does not travel with the physician, law enforcement sources say most agents receive extensive emt training and can assist in an emergency. and there is always supposed to be a first aid trauma kit in a nominee's motorcade. this video is raising serious
4:46 pm
questions about the democratic nominee's health, just as the final false sprint is getting under way. >> that was nbc's kristen welker and now to andrea mitchell, for more on hillary clinton's health history. >> hillary clinton showing no sign of a health problem during a busy campaign week, except for what her doctors at the time called seasonal allergies on labor day. 15 months ago, a two-page medical report detailing her most serious health issue, her doctor writing that in december of 2012, mrs. clinton suffered a stomach virus after traveling. became dehydrated, fainted and sustained a concussion. she was hospitalized, doctors finding a blood clot, requiring blood thinning medication which she still takes. and a month later had to wear special glasses when first testifying about benghazi. >> thank you, madam secretary, and wonderful to see you and good health and as combative as ever. >> in 1998, clinton also had a
4:47 pm
clot, a deep vein thrombosis in her leg. you had at least two clots. how does that affect your decision about whether to run for president and all the flying that entails. >> it doesn't factor in at all. i have no doubt that i'm healthy enough. >> donald trump used all that to claim clinton is hiding a serious health problem. >> she also lacks the mental and physical stamina to take on isis. >> his latest paranoid fever dream is about my health. and all i can say is, donald, dream on. >> clinton's campaign has struck back at trump's medical report, a brief letter from his gastroenterologist praising trump's health as astonishingly excellent, extraordinary, the letter addressed to whom my concern. >> in a rush, i think some of those words didn't come out exactly the way they were meant. >> nbc's andrea mitchell with that report. i want to bring back dr. debbie,
4:48 pm
a physician and assistant professor at nyu school of medicine. she was mentioning deep vein thrombosis and a couple of cases. coumadin is what secretary clinton takes because of that condition. might that be a consideration of what happened here today? >> the coumadin would not predispose you to develop pneumonia. first of all if you're sick and eating let, the coumadin level or basically the blood thinning level i guess that is what we call it, the ability to clot, that might change. so she would have to be monitored for that. and similarly if you take antibiotics that can also interact with coumadin. so those are things that would have to be monitored in the coming days. >> big deal or is it something like a staten. how would you characterize it? >> it is a big deal in some sense. so it is prescribed pretty often. so it is relatively common for people who have blood clots, but on the other hand, the problem with coumadin is that if it is
4:49 pm
not monitored closely, that you could have the opposite problem where you're more likely to bleed, because your body has a difficulty clotting off if you're bleeding. >> dr. debbie, thank you so much for coming by today and giving us a lot of context behind what has been reported today, appreciate it. next, we'll meet some of the children of first responders killed on 9/11 and how they're following in their parents footsteps today. marie believes that her chicken pot pie gives you the perfect recipe for catching up with family. so she takes the time to prepare a golden flakey crust made from scratch. and mixes crisp vegetables with all white meat chicken and bakes it to perfection. because marie callender knows that making the perfect dinner isn't easy as pie, but finding someone to enjoy it with sure is. marie callender's it's time to savor and know there's even more to savor with family size pot pies. every day starts better with a healthy smile. start yours with philips sonicare,
