Margaret Thatcher hospitalized
Former British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher has been admitted to the hospital following a recent bout of flu.
The BBC quoted an unnamed spokesman as saying the former leader’s condition is not serious and she is expected to be home in a few days.
The former Conservative Prime Minister was running a high temperature and her family and friends did not want to take any chances with her health.
Baroness Thatcher was forced to miss a Downing Street reception to mark her 85th birthday last week because of flu.
British Prime Minister David Cameron’s office said he wished the former leader a “speedy recovery.”
