Carrie Lam discharged from hospital

Chief Executive Carrie Lam was discharged from hospital on Tuesday morning after she stayed overnight following a fall at Government House.

She was admitted the previous night after fracturing her right elbow.

The fracture was described as minor.

Lam left Queen Mary Hospital at around 9am on Tuesday, her arm wrapped in a cast.

She boarded a black seven-seater without speaking to reporters.

Tuesday’s scheduled Executive Council meeting and the preceding media session have both been cancelled.
