It was reported at the Tour of Ireland that Cav was recovering from an illness. Maybe Lewis got it there?

Grabsch pulled out of the Tour of Ireland before it began with illness as well

Back from the Tour of Ireland, the American rider Craig Lewis (Team Columbia-HTC) and the Belgian manager of Team Astana Johan Bruyneel have contracted the virus. All indications are that both men have been affected by the virus in Ireland.
