Don't prejudge before you know. Unless you've witnessed the death of another person first hand, don't presume to know what it feels like and, to some people, the emotional toll of reliving that moment under examination, in a court of law, may be more than they are able to cope with. You may be able to brush of such stress without a second thought but I know that I would find it difficult and can understand how some may find it more than they can face up to. These are circumstances way beyond normal human experience and don't see it as fair to find them wanting, particularly if they are suffering from flu, an illness acknowledged to a have a broad range of symptoms ranging to the severe and temporarily debilitating.
