Yesterday it was confirmed that the Liverpool-born musician had caught the virus, scuppering five upcoming concerts in Canada.
A statement said: “Ringo hopes to resume as soon as possible and is recovering at home.
“As always, he and the All Starrs send peace and love to their fans, and hope to see them back out on the road soon.”
Shows in New Buffalo, Michigan, as well as Winnipeg, Saskatoon and Lethbridge, were among those cancelled.
