Malala is stable and making good progress: UK doctors

Girls’ rights activist Malala Yousafzai, who was critically injured after being shot in the head by the Taliban, is stable and making good progress.
“The medical team caring for Malala Yousufzai at the Queen Elizabeth Hospital Birmingham reported today that she is still stable and making good progress with her treatment,” the hospital said in a statement on Wednesday.
“Only the medical team from the Queen Elizabeth and Birmingham Children’s hospitals and Malala’s immediate family has been given access to her bedside,” it said.
Doctors say Malala continues to make steady progress at the hospital.
On Tuesday, UK Foreign Secretary William Hague, Interior Minister Rehman Malik and United Arab Emirates (UAE) Foreign Minister Sheikh Abdullah Bin Zayed met the members of the medical team caring for the 15-year-old, and her father Ziauddin.
Afterwards, the ministerial delegation held a short press conference during which Hague said Malala’s “swift and full recovery is our absolute priority” and thanked the doctors at the hospital.
