Jul. 6 2009, Published 6:37 a.m. ET
Though it hasn't turned out to be the world-ending epidemic the nightly news would have had you believe it was going to be, the swine flu is still a terribly nasty — and occasionally fatal — illness that continues to infect people around the globe, even celebrities like actor Rupert Grint of the Harry Potter films.
“It has just been confirmed that Rupert Grint has taken a few days out of filming due to a mild bout of swine flu,” his publicist said in a <a href="http://justjared.buzznet.com/2009/07/04/rupert-grint-contracts-swine-flu/" target="_blank">statement released over the weekend</a>. “He has now recovered and is looking forward to joining his fellow cast members at the junket and premieres this week and will then return to filming directly afterwards.”');
