		</div><p>The Reverend Jesse Jackson and his wife Jacqueline have been admitted to hospital after testing positive for Covid-19, according to a statement on Saturday.</p>
<p>Reverend Jackson, 79, a famed civil rights leader, is vaccinated against the virus and received his first dose in January during a publicised event as he urged others to receive the inoculation as soon as possible.</p>
<p>He and his 77-year-old wife are being treated at Northwestern Memorial Hospital in Chicago.</p>
<p>“Doctors are currently monitoring the condition of both,” according to the statement authorised by the couple’s son, Jonathan Jackson.</p>
<p>“There are no further updates at this time.”</p>
<p>A protege of the Reverend Martin Luther King, Reverend Jackson was key in guiding the modern civil rights movement on numerous issues, including voting rights.</p>
<p>Despite having been diagnosed for Parkinson’s disease, Reverend Jackson has remained active, and has advocated for Covid-19 vaccines for black people, who lag behind white people in the United States’ vaccination drive.</p>
