SHOOT: Seems hard to believe 170 riders can go through the whole of France, surrounded by millions of spectators and not pick up something. Hope they get through though. Not sure how realistic 'hope' is at this stage.
LYON, France (Reuters) - A group of 23 teenagers from the Paris region have fallen ill with the H1N1 flu virus at a school camp in the Alps and have been isolated in special rooms at the center, a local official said on Saturday.
On Friday, the French authorities said there were 434 confirmed cases of H1N1 in France, 383 of them in the capital, and that 309 of the cases had originated abroad.
Also on Friday, the British health authorities announced the first death from H1N1, also known as swine flu, of an otherwise healthy patient. All previous deaths from H1N1 in Britain had been of people with other serious health problems.
