Members of Canada’s Badminton Team were exposed to a stomach virus while at a pre-Games training camp in Derby, England. Two
athletes, Michelle Li and Alex Bruce, fell ill July 19th and have been on bed rest. Both athletes are recovering well and are expected to
return to training in the next few days.

The athletes were treated by a local doctor. They are also under the care of the Canadian Olympic Medical Team and have been seen by a team doctor. All precautions have been taken to prevent any further spread of the virus.

The athletes will not participate in a previously scheduled friendly
exhibition match against Great Britain today. The team will remain in
Derby to train in preparation for the Games and is expected to return
to London on the 24th of July as planned.
