OZZY OSBOURNE Cancels Trip To Switzerland To Get Treatment For Parkinson’s Disease Due To Coronavirus

Ozzy Osbourne 2020 interview

Ozzy Osbourne has been forced to cancel his trip to Switzerland to see a professor who specializes in people’s immune systems.

Ozzy‘s wife and manager, Sharon, revealed the news in the latest episode of her CBS daytime series “The Talk”, which was filmed at its presenters’ homes.

“We had to cancel our trip to Switzerland. We were meant to go on the 8th of April, but we had to cancel, for his treatment, Sharon said. “We’re just hanging in, like everybody else, just trying to stay away and be quiet and just hold it in there.

“But I honestly find this such frightening times,” she added. “I just think it’s a really, really frightening time to be alive. I’m not one of these people [who are], like, ‘Oh, I’m bonding with all these people,’ and, ‘This is amazing.’ I’m not that way. I cry every day when I watch the death toll go up and more and more people catch this virus and I’m just devastated by it. For me, I’m hearthbroken.”

Iconic BLACK SABBATH singer has revealed that he was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease in February, 2019.

While it was difficult for the rock star to address what he’s gone through in the past year, Ozzy said that his fans have been a source of support.

“They’re my air, you know,” Ozzy noted. “I feel better. I’ve owned up to the fact that I have — a case of Parkinson’s. And I just hope they hang on and they’re there for me because I need them.”

Ozzy released his new solo album, Ordinary Man, on February 21st.

Ordinary Man was preceded by a trio of new Ozzy classics. Epic rocker and first single “Under The Graveyard” tallied over 15 million streams and 5.3 million YouTube views on the music video. Premiered just last month, the title track and cinematic ballad “Ordinary Man” [feat. Elton John] eclipsed 7 million streams. Meanwhile, the metallic burner “Straight To Hell” [feat. Slash] scored 6.9 million streams and 4.2 million YouTube views on the music video.

Ordinary Man marks Osbourne’s first new solo music in almost 10 years.

Beyond the core band, Ordinary Man, features a who’s-who of Ozzy friends and collaborators including Elton JohnSlashPost Malone, and Tom Morello.
