AT least 160 Britons are being held in quarantine abroad because they are suspected of having the H1N1 flu virus, the United Kingdom Foreign Office said yesterday.
The Britons, a mixture of adults and children, were being held in China, Singapore, India and Egypt.
A group of 52 British schoolchildren and their teachers were quarantined in Beijing last weekend after four pupils were admitted to hospital infected with the swine-flu virus.
One remained in hospital in Beijing, while the other three were in hospital in Hangzhou, the Foreign Office said.
