Archbishop Desmond Tutu is hospitalised again
JOBURG – Tutu has been admitted to the hospital again for a recurring infection.
The Desmond & Leah Tutu Legacy Foundation reported that the Nobel Peace Prize winner and former Archbishop Emeritus Desmond Tutu is again been admitted to hospital.
The foundation said he has been admitted to receive treatment for a reported “stubborn” infection, the same condition that saw him in and out of the hospital for years.
Archbishop Emeritus Desmond Tutu has been admitted to hospital for treatment of a stubborn infection, Mrs Leah Tutu said today. The Archbishop has been hospitalised several times over the past few years for treatment of a similar condition. @TutuLegacy

The 88-year-old was in fine health last month when he met the Springboks after their Rugby World Cup win, and shortly before that when he met the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, Prince Harry and Meghan, and their baby son, Archie.
Many have taken to Twitter to wish him a speedy recovery:
Prayers of comfort and healing for The Arch.
