Celebritity Swine Flu Insurance!

Celebrities are starting to insure themselves for the event they they contract Swine Flu!  Katherine Jenkins has set the trend with a policy that insures her for £1million for losses associated with the contraction of the virus.

It is not uncommon for celebrities to be insured by concert promoters for a number of potential risks, including death, causing concert programmes to be cancelled.  In the case of Michael Jackson, his policy had an exclusion policy for death if blood results showed illegal drugs.

Illnesses are often covered in such contracts but not pandemic illnesses, hence the need for a swine flu clause.
