Ozzy Osbourne won’t be flying to Switzerland next month for medical treatment for his Parkinson’s disease.

 
The vocalist shelved his 2020 North American tour so he could make the trip and undergo treatment which was scheduled to take between six to eight weeks.
 
But with large parts of the world on lockdown due to the coronavirus pandemic, Ozzy will no longer be travelling.
 
Speaking on her US CBS show The Talk, Ozzy’s wife and manager Sharon said: “We had to cancel our trip to Switzerland. We were meant to go on April 8  for his treatment, but we had to cancel.
 
We’re just hanging in like everybody else – just trying to stay away and be quiet and just hold in there. I honestly find this such frightening times. I just think it's a really, really frightening time to be alive.”
 
News of the cancellation comes just days after Ozzy’s daughter Kelly reported that her father was feeling better following stem cell treatment.
 
Earlier this month, Ozzy released a video for his single Ordinary Man which features guest vocals from Elton John.
 
It’s the title track from Ozzy’s new studio album, which launched in late February.
