(Reuters) - Former U.S. President George H.W. Bush has recovered from pneumonia but will remain in a Houston-area medical centre until the end of the week while he is treated for chronic bronchitis, the hospital said on Tuesday.

Bush, 92, was admitted to Houston Methodist Hospital on April 14 for a cough that was later diagnosed as a mild case of pneumonia. The hospital said earlier this week that he would remain there another few days.
