WASHINGTON -- Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton is out of the hospital after being treated for a blood clot near her brain.

Clinton's leaving a New York hospital yesterday was the first time she had been seen publicly since Dec. 7.

The clot stemmed from a concussion Clinton suffered in December after she had fainted at home while recovering from the flu. She's being treated with blood thinners.
