Malala continues to make good progress, say doctors

London: The 14-year-old Pakistani teenager activist Malala Yousafzai undergoing treatment in a British hospital continues to make good progress, doctors attending her said. Dr David Rosser, the medical director of the Queen Elizabeth Hospital in Birmingham in a statement last night said that the team of specialists from hospitals had been “impressed with her strength and resilience.” [caption id=“attachment_494012” align=“alignleft” width=“380”] Malala Yousufzai[/caption] Her condition on Tuesday afternoon was described as “stable” and her response to treatment so far indicated that she could make a good recovery from her injuries. Messages of support and offers of financial assistance for Malala have been flooding in to the hospital. A message board has been set up on the Trust’s website to allow well-wishers to leave their messages of support. The teenager schoolgirl was shot last Tuesday in the head by a Taliban gunman for her campaign supporting girls’ education. Malala was flown to the Queen Elizabeth Hospital in an air ambulance from Pakistan on Monday evening for treatment. PTI
