Some churches have also begun to allow "intinction" or dipping bread in communion wine rather than sharing the chalice, while others have stopped offering wine altogether, the newspaper said.

A British bishop has already advised his diocese to suspend holy water from churches in a bid to halt the spread of the A(H1N1) virus.

这些措施效法了其他国家的做法，例如葡萄牙，那里的教徒领圣餐时是把面包放在手中而不是放进嘴里。
