Clinton laughs off question about taking a neurocognitive test

Hillary Clinton dismissed a question this week from a reporter who asked if she’d be willing to submit to a neurocognitive test.

The reporter, ABC Action News’ Sarina Fazan, asked Clinton about the medical testing after the Democratic nominee delivered an address in Orlando, Fla.

“Last week you were remembering 9/11. I want to talk about your health for a moment,” Fazan said. “I know you provided documents saying that you are fit to serve as president of the United States, [but] would you be willing to take some neurocognitive tests?”

Clinton responded with a laugh.

“I am very sorry I got pneumonia,” the Democratic nominee said. “I am very glad that antibiotics took care of it and that’s behind us now. I have met the standard that everybody running for president has met in terms of releasing information about my health. I have to say my opponent has not met that standard.”

“The information is very clear, and the information, as I said, meets the standards that every other person running for president has ever had to meet,” she added.
