Has anyone else's church decided not to use the communion challice during the swine flu epidemic

[Reallytired]

Our (C of E) church has and I suspect that the priest is using swine flu as an excuse to become more and more anglo catholic than ever. For a lot of reasons I am feeling more and more uncomfortable. I feel torn in that I have a lot of friends at this church, but at the same time I do not feel it is developing my family's spirtually. I feel that they are worshipping the literagy rather than God.

We had a sermon today when our priest made it clear that he believed in transtantiation of the bread and wine.

Is this a decision in all C of E churches or is our priest an exception.

we have always had a choice of chalice or little cups but this week we just had little cups. We were also told that we weren't allowed to shake hands to do the Peace but most people did anyway.

rek that does sound like a huge overreaction to me.
