Madonna is currently recovering from a bacterial infection that led to her hospitalization for multiple days after she was admitted on June 24.
Guy Oseary, her talent manager and producer, confirmed the news, stating while her health is improving she is still under medical care. A "full recovery is expected," but as a result all commitments including her highly anticipated Celebration Tour will be temporarily paused.
CNN reports that Madonna was transported to her New York residence in a private ambulance, with a source stating that she is now in a stable condition. The exact cause of the initial bacterial infection remains unclear, but medical professionals have described it as a severe case that necessitated intensive care treatment.
Bacterial infections can potentially develop into a life-threatening condition known as sepsis or blood poisoning. This medical emergency occurs when the body reacts severely to an infection.
If not promptly treated, sepsis can lead to tissue damage, organ failure, and in some cases, death. The initial infection that triggers sepsis often originates in the lungs, skin, urinary system, or digestive tract.
