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
