Via Bernama:

" The National Sports Institute (NSI) has confirmed that all 40 players, coaches and other support officers in the Malaysian Thomas Cup and Uber Cup squads are free from influenza A (H1N1) infection.

Its director-general, Datuk Dr Ramlan Aziz said the squad received all-clear from a second test conducted jointly by the NSI and the Federal Territory Health Department during a training stint at the Juara Stadium, Bukit Kiara this morning.

"Despite the all-clear scan, the NSI and the FT Health Department will continue to monitor the squad to avoid any risk of infection," he said when contacted by Bernama on Monday.

He said a medical team would also be stationed at a hotel where foreign players were putting up to check on their health condition.

The Chinese badminton squad is scheduled to arrive tomorrow while others on Friday."
