Costa Rican
Legislature Free Of The AH1N1 Virus
Laboratory test results were negative for
the head of the PLN party in the
legislature, Jorge Méndez, being infected
with the AH1N1 viras, alleviating fears of a
massive infection in the country's
legislature.
The ministerio de Salud announced the
infection free Congress and said that Costa
Rican president, Oscar Arias, who earlier
this week was confirmed infected, is getting
better.
Arias is the first head of state to announce
publicly of being infected with the AH1N1
and has been working from home, limiting his
contact with people to close friends and
advisors, who were on hand Wednesday evening
at the Arias private home in Rohrmoser to
watch the Costa Rican national soccer team
defeat against Honduras.
Salud officials said that Méndez has the
flu, but test results show it is not the
AH1N1 as feared.
Legislative Assembly officials earlier this
week also reinforced the health protocols to
avoid any mass infections. |
