Who gets walking pneumonia and how is it spread?
People who live and work in crowded places, such as schools, homeless shelters, and prisons have a higher risk of contracting the disease. That's because walking pneumonia is contagious. It's spread when someone comes in contact with droplets from the nose and throat of someone who has it. That commonly happens when the person with walking pneumonia sneezes or coughs.

1. I had it
felt like I had the worst cold, ever!
I am in a school (a teacher), so I got the 'crowded places' part.
Rest and antibiotics, and one willl be as good as new!

4. I had it. I was sounding like a barking bouvier when I coughed. My
fabulous boss at the restaurant insisted I go to the hospital. I did . They gave me prednisone, a steroid, to heal. My boss could believe how fast I got at work and how aggressive I was. I'd love to see Hillary on prednisone debating Trump!!

5. I had it in my early 20's. It was the result of having a chest cold that
I literally kept walking around with until it turned into pneumonia and took me out for a few days. I'm seeing posts that it is contagious, but what I remember is that I got it after a prolonged cold, so I was worn down already from that. It was intense, but I got over it and popped right back up after it was over.

6. I had it last year.
It took me three months to realize it just wasn't going away and at times, seemed to be getting worse. Two courses of antibiotics killed it but it was very tiring!

She must be an iron woman to have been keeping up her schedule with that.
No,she is a liar and already likely trying to get out of the first debate.

9. Your list names schools. KIDS get mycoplasmal infections, and they are often
upper respiratory infections that look like a cold. Then they sneeze and spread the germs around to others who can get upper respiratory infections -- or may get bronchitis or pneumonia (commonly called walking pneumonia).
When my kids were young this happened to me three times. They got what seemed to be a mild but long lasting cold. And then I got stuck with the walking pneumonia.

10. I've had it. Take your medicine and rest a bit and you're good to go.
Oddly this is one sure way to tell her immune system is working and she's tough.
Or she is wracked with STDs and has no immune system.

I wonder if Huma and her security detail is going to come down with it.

She's "working" so hard on the campaign trail? Raising money with celebrities, not interacting with the common folk.

I've had pneumonia and it caused me to lose my 2nd trimester baby. She doesn't have pneumonia

Pneumonia is very serious. People are very ill.

"Pneumonia" means two quite different things. One is a life-threatening pneumococcal bacterial lung infection with which you won't be walking around too long without finding out you are really damn' sick. The other just means you have fluid in your lungs, and is a symptom rather than a disease, which can be caused by a wide variety of things which range from fairly trivial to quite serious.

No she doesn't. There is something seriously wrong with her that's being hidden. She's leaning against a post and her left leg buckles, then buckles again, then down she goes.
Imagine if that was Trump. The left would be screaming for medical records. Instead, Hitlary is being celebrated as a genius move (that was faked) to smoke out Trump and his demand for medical records.
Liberals disgust me.

So would I!! It makes your head swell up so you look like a freak.
A reporter on Fox (I forget the name), said that the press pool was with her all day on Friday. When did she have time to see a doctor and get this "diagnosis?"

29. for God sakes...it is not a health problem.
It is an illness that is easily curable and millions have had it...that is what will sink both the right's and some on the left's attempt to blow this into something...too many people have had it...they know what it is.
Yes they do. When grandma falls and breaks a hip, pneumonia can often set in. Pretty soon, you're planning a funeral.
