The 70-year-old British singer posted an update Tuesday on Twitter
after being treated for an unusual and "potentially deadly" infection he
contracted in South America.
"Woke up to an avalanche of well wishes. Thanks to everyone for
reaching out. I'm resting well and looking forward to getting back on
tour," he wrote.
"I am so fortunate to have the most incredible and loyal fans and apologize for disappointing them," the star said in a statement through Caesar's Palace.
