NEW YORK: US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton left a New York hospital  after three days of treatment and is expected to make a full recovery from a rare blood clot in her head.
“Secretary Clinton was discharged from the hospital this evening,” a top aide, Deputy Assistant Secretary Philippe Reines, said in a statement.
“Her medical team advised her that she is making good progress on all fronts, and they are confident she will make a full recovery,” he said, adding that Clinton was “eager to get back to the office.”
Earlier the top US diplomat, bundled up against the cold in a thick winter coat and wearing dark glasses, appeared in public for the first time in almost a month, when she came out of a building at the New York Presbyterian Hospital.
