Prince Philip, husband of Queen Elizabeth II, received medical discharge on Tuesday and left the King Edward VII private hospital in central London, after having been hospitalized for twenty-eight days.

According to an Efe journalist at the scene, the 99-year-old Duke of Edinburgh left the hospital in a private car after dozens of police officers blocked the adjacent streets to prepare for the departure of the convoy in which the queen’s consort travels.

The prince Philip was hospitalized on February 16 to be treated for an infection and two weeks later he was transferred to the St Bartholomew medical center, also in the British capital, where he remained for several days to be successfully operated on for a heart problem.
