Sergei Skripal, Former Spy Poisoned With Novichok, Released From Hospital But Still Recovering

Sergei Skripal, the former spy who was poisoned with a Soviet-era nerve agent called Novichok, was released from the hospital today. But health officials stress that Skripal still needs more time to properly recover.

Skripal, 66, and his daughter Yulia, 33, were both poisoned with Novichok on March 4, 2018 and were found unconscious on a park bench in Salisbury. The first police officer to attend to them was also treated for being exposed to the nerve agent. British authorities believe that Russia was behind the poisonings, something that the Russian government denies.

“While these patients have now been discharged, their right to patient confidentiality remains and limits us from giving detailed accounts of the treatment these individuals received," a Salisbury District Hospital spokesperson in a statement.

"However, treating people who are so acutely unwell, having been poisoned by nerve agents, requires stabilising them, keeping them alive until their bodies could produce more enzymes to replace those that had been poisoned."

The hospital stresses that there will be more recovery necessary "away from the hospital." It's unclear at this point where Skripal will be living. His home, believed to be the place where he and his daughter were poisoned, was sealed off as a crime scene. Yulia was moved to an undisclosed "secure" location after her discharge from the hospital on April 10th.
