The emergency phone call that led to US Defence Secretary Lloyd Austin being admitted to hospital on New Year's Day has been released, revealing a request for the ambulance to be "subtle".

He was released from the hospital after two weeks and will continue his recovery at home, working remotely. President Biden has expressed confidence in Austin but acknowledged a lapse in judgement for not informing the White House about his hospitalization.
