Nelson Mandela In Hospital With Lung Infection

Former South African President, Nelson Mandela has been re-admitted to hospital with a recurrence of a lung infection.
The statement from the South African Presidency said Mr. Mandela, 94, had been admitted just before midnight on Wednesday.
Mr. Mandela spent 18 days in hospital in December 2012, undergoing treatment for a lung infection and gallstones.
He is widely regarded the father of the nation for leading the struggle against apartheid.
Mr. Mandela served as South Africa's first black president from 1994 to 1999.
A Presidential spokesman told the BBC that Mr. Mandela was conscious and was receiving the best possible medical treatment.
"I think we need to be clear that the doctors are attending to Madiba (Mr. Mandela) on a continuous basis," spokesman Mac Maharaj said.
"They prefer to act on the side of caution, and the moment they felt there was a recurrence of the lung infection, they felt it warranted immediate hospitalisation given his age and given his history.
