As fans likely remember, in Feb. 2019, the 71-year-old rock legend postponed his tour dates after he suffered a fall and once again after coming down with pneumonia.
“I’m so thankful that everyone has been patient because I’ve had a s--- year,” Osbourne said in a statement. “Unfortunately, I won’t be able to get to Switzerland for treatment until April and the treatment takes six-eight weeks. I don’t want to start a tour and then cancel shows at the last minute, as it’s just not fair to the fans."
