At least seven non-lethal cases of a swine virus had been reported in Texas and California (the U.S. cases seem to be susceptible to antiviral treatment; and, in a hopeful note for Mexicans, preliminary tests show 14 samples from Mexico to be identical to the American strain). Canadian officials have also found the swine virus in one tourist returning from Mexico.
