The Apollo-Soyuz Test Project crew was making "excellent progress" recovering from lung ailments that developed when the crew inhaled nitrogen tetroxide during Apollo reentry [see 15-24 July], Johnson Space Center Director of Life Sciences Richard S. Johnston told a crew-status press briefing at JSC. Johnston told reporters that, if the crew continued to progress, they would be released from Tripler Hospital on 29 July. However, their activities would be restricted for an additional 10 days to protect them from undue exposure to large crowds, to ensure continued improvement, and to avoid respiratory complications.
