He seems to be doing OK.

I just heard that BB King was admitted to a hospital yesterday or today, but I haven't heard why. Does anyone have more information on this?

EDIT: I found this article from FOX. No info on the reason though.

They're saying he had a low-grade fever from the flu

B.B. King was hospitalized for a low-grade fever following the flu but was in good condition Friday, his management agency said.

King, who has a history of diabetes, was taking antibiotics for a 100-degree fever, France said. The ailment in a younger person wouldn't have required hospitalization, but King is being monitored because of his age, she said.

Hopefully they were just being cautious with his age and health history and it's nothing too serious.
