              Hillary Clinton Remains Hospitalized With Blood Clot

   by VOA News

   Doctors are closely monitoring U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton,
   who was hospitalized Sunday with a blood clot.
   Clinton is in New York-Presbyterian Hospital after doctors discovered
   the clot while performing a follow-up exam for a concussion she
   suffered earlier this month. A spokesman said the secretary is being
   treated with medicine to break up the clot.
   Clinton has been ill in recent weeks with a stomach virus that forced
   her to cancel public appearances and travel plans. On December 21 she
   fainted, fell and suffered a concussion.
   Clinton plans to step-down in January, after U.S. President Barack
   Obama is inaugurated for a second term. She has visited 112 countries
   during her tenure at the State Department, making her the most traveled
   secretary of state in U.S. history.
   Officials expect her to remain at the hospital through Tuesday.
