Singaporean singer JJ Lin has been hospitalised in Taipei on Thursday after complaining of a persistent high fever and breaking out in cold sweat, following days of round-the-clock filming for his new music video.After undergoing blood tests and X-rays of his lungs, Lin was diagnosed with Influenza A (H1N1), a potent flu virus that spreads very quickly.
On orders of doctor, Lin has quarantined himself for the next five days.
Little Ng, an Artiste Management and Promotions executive at Lin's music label Ocean Butterfly Music said that Lin is now recovering, although "the fever comes back on and off".
She also clarified that Lin did not have 'Bird Flu' as some reports had suggested.
Lin's hospitalisation and subsequent quarantine has forced him to cancel three large-scale performances and a meet-the-fans session in China.
The 29-year-old singer has expressed regret over the cancellations and feels bad for disappointing his fans in China.
According to a statement from Ocean Butterfly Music, Lin lost an estimated 1.5 million Yuan (S$292,000) because of the cancellations.
