Madonna hospitalized for serious bacterial infection

Madonna, the pop queen, was hospitalised on Saturday and needs a stay in the intensive care unit, ICU, after contracting a “serious” infection.

Madonna was diagnosed with a severe bacterial infection on Saturday.

The 64-year-old “Like a Virgin” singer has also postponed her Celebration World Tour, which will be rescheduled, according to her manager, Guy Oseary.

Madonna already cancelled a number of shows on her most recent tour in 2019 owing to a knee issue. The tour was also cut short.

However, Oseary further disclosed that Madonna’s health is improving while she is still under medical care.

“On Saturday June 24, Madonna developed a serious bacterial infection which lead (sic) to a several day stay in the ICU.

“Her health is improving, however she is still under medical care. A full recovery is expected,” Oseary wrote on Instagram Wednesday.
