Have any of your bishops or priests issued guidelines recommending that Holy Communion be only taken in the HAND because of H1N1?

We received this the week before last, and it’s a little troubling for me because I’ve instructed my son to only receive the Host on the tongue.

won’t do it. My priest would not expect it. He allows us to receive kneeling and on the tongue, and we have a Latin Mass every week that it would be impossible to receive any other way, so IF it got forced, I would just go to the Latin. No way will I take it in the hand. The only hand that should touch it is the one who consecrated it or is ordained to administer it.

The church existed for 2000 years, no swine flu put the ki-bosh on it before, and, God willing, this silliness will pass as well.
