"Secretary Clinton was discharged from the hospital this evening," a top aide, Deputy Assistant Secretary Philippe Reines, said in a statement, after the 65-year-old diplomat was forced to spend New Year's Eve in a hospital bed.

"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, Kazinform cites China Daily.

It was the first time Clinton had been seen since catching a stomach virus on returning from a trip to Europe on Dec 7, which triggered a series of health scares, forcing doctors to order her to rest.
