Cherie Blair battles virus with Tamiflu
CHERIE Blair has suspected swine flu and has pulled out of a series of public engagements while she battles the illness.
The wife of former prime minister Tony Blair has been given a course of the Tamiflu anti-viral drug and told to rest. The QC had been due to pick up an honorary degree at Liverpool's Hope University yesterday. She also cancelled a staff barbecue to ensure the virus was not passed on.
Mr Blair and the couple's children have not shown any signs of being infected.
