Swine flu boy forces Eton closure

Public school Eton will close for a week after a pupil tested positive for swine flu, a school spokesman has said.

The Berkshire school, which was attended by princes William and Harry, was informed on Wednesday that a 13-year-old boy had tested positive.

Health authorities advised the school to shut until 7 June.

It comes after health officials announced a further 17 people in the UK were diagnosed with the virus, taking the total number of cases to 203.

Fourteen of the new cases – 13 children and one adult – are part of an outbreak now totalling 64 cases linked to Welford Primary School in Birmingham.

Welford is carrying out a “deep clean” while closed for half-term.
