Potter star Rupert Grint has been confirmed as having taken a few days off filming Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows due to having contracted the H1N1 influenza virus, also known as the swine flu.
In a statement Grint's publicist said that it had been confirmed that the 20-year-old Potter star had contracted a mild case of the virus but that he has since recovered and is looking forward to attending the upcoming premieres for Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince with his fellow cast members before returning to the set of Deathly Hallows once again for filming.

Pretty unexpected piece of news. But ultimately, the H1N1 spares nobody, not even celebrities. Though I'm glad for him that his case was a mild one, and that he's already recovered and that he will be able to be at the premiere. It would have been horrible if he had to miss out.

Glad he only had a mild case and that he's feeling better now. He's running around too much with the publicity, so that's probably why he got it in the first place...travelling, being tired...
