Almotamar.net - The Ministry of Public Health and Population in Yemen announced Tuesday the discovery of the first case of infection of swine flu, known as H1N1 virus, of a Yemeni student, 16 who has come from the United States of America and the case was identified last Saturday.
Yemen Health Minister Dr Abdul-Karim Rase has confirmed discovery of the case last Saturday in Aden following submitting the patient necessary examinations, indicating the patient was presently under quarantine and completion of treatment measures and his separation from those around him of his family to avoid their infection.
The minister indicated that the infected student was among a group of students receiving a training program in the US and that group returned home last week.
In his press conference attended by correspondents of Arab news channels the minister said the ministry has declared an emergency state at all its hospitals to tackle any agency that may occur.
The health ministry statement affirmed that the discovered case was light and the patient was subjected to treatment and he is at present under quarantine in his house, in accordance with international instructions adopted by the World Health Organisation.

In 2007 the opposition Yemen Congregation for Reform (Islah) Islamic oriented Party maintained its having political and media sway over the Joint meeting Parties (JMP) block, also consisting of Yemen Socialist Party and the Nasserite Unionist Organisation. 
Yemen is practically a cool green paradise, with crisp mountain air, enormous acacia trees, pristine coral reefs and verdant fields bursting with khat, a psychoactive plant that induces mild euphoria. 
Sana'a: Yemen will not be able to combat terror without regional and international cooperation, said a Yemeni official, who warned of the ramifications of letting Yemen fight terrorism alone.
Many journalists covered the funeral of the murdered Minister, Pierre Gemayel, the latest victim in a string of political assassinations in Lebanon.
Doctors use the word “crisis” to describe the point at which a patient either starts to recover or dies. President George W. Bush’s Iraqi patient now seems to have reached that point. Most commentators appear to think that Bush’s latest prescription – a surge of 20,000 additional troops to suppress the militias in Baghdad – will, at best, merely postpone the inevitable death of his dream of a democratic Iraq. Yet as “Battle of Baghdad” begins, factors beyond Bush’s control and not of his making (at least not intentionally) may just save Iraq from its doom.
