A woman kisses a phial of what local Roman Catholics believe is the blood of Saint Gennaro at the Duomo in Naples in this December 16, 2006 file photo. Fear of H1N1 flu will stop devout Neapolitans from performing the time-honoured ritual of kissing the blood of their patron Saint Gennaro when the city's annual festival begins later this month. The decision to forbid kissing of the glass phial containing the saint's blood was taken reluctantly by ecclesiastical and city authorities on Monday, and has brought protests from local politicians.
