'Faith' singer George Michael is "improving steadily" from his battle with pneumonia and his Austrian doctors are happy.
The 48-year-old singer, who was rushed to Vienna's AKH hospital last week, has been receiving treatment on a £100,000 bed that has more than likely saved his life, according to one doctor.
While the singer is still in intensive care because of the "severity and extension" of his illness, the doctor's can see improvement.
In a statement, Professors Gottfried Locker and Christoph Zielinski said: "The latest development in Mr Michael's case, which has evolved from a severe pneumococcal infection, necessitated intensive care due to its severity and extension.
"We are happy to announce that Mr Michael is improving steadily with an impressive regression of pneumonic symptoms and follows a steady rate of improvement as hoped.
"There are no other health issues with regards to the patient other than the underlying pneumonic disorder, and no further measures had to be taken."
They also added: "Mr Michael is receiving precisely the same treatment as any ordinary patient in Austria would receive at the hospital for this disease."
Michael has been forced to cancel his remaining tour dates will he has "complete rest" to allow him to recover from his illness.
