Not quite over.
http://www.jpost.com/servlet/Satellite?pagename=JPost/JPArticle/ShowFull&cid=1239710785388 A 26-year-old man from the Netanya area who on Friday returned home from Mexico and felt unwell, was hospitalized over the weekend after he heard from friends about the outbreak of swine flu there and in the US. The man, named Tomer, works in a production firm and his job takes him to Mexico twice a month for a week-long stay. He was stationed in Juarez, his girlfriend told Channel 2, but would fly to and from Israel through the airport in Mexico City. When he returned last Friday he was not feeling well and after hearing the news of the outbreak in Mexico he decided to check himself into a hospital, his girlfriend said, adding that he was suffering regular flu symptoms, such as fever, a sore throat and shivers. He was still in isolation at Netanya's Laniado Medical Center on Sunday as doctors and the Health Ministry waited for results of the tests that will determine whether he was infected during his trip with the H1N1 influenza virus Medclinician |
