In light of this news, AC/DC asks that Malcolm and his family’s privacy be respected during this time. The band will continue to make music.
It wouldn't be the first time Malcom didn't tour with the band. There was another tour, or at least part of it, that Malcom's nephew Stevie filled in on guitar for him. That may be the route the band chooses to go again.

I am hearing they will be in studio in May which can be done and touring with someone to fill his spot isn't out of the question.

It seems that we could use an "UPDATE - Not Dead" in the thread title.
