"When you test positive for anti-bodies it means you HAD the virus, which I clearly did as I was sick at the end of my tour in Paris over 7 weeks ago, along with many other artists in my show but at the time.
"We all thought we had a very bad flu.
"Thank God we are all healthy and well now.

It comes after fans questioned why Madonna attended a birthday party in person after testing positive for antibodies.
