Chinese health inspectors and officials step off an AeroMexico aircraft, identified as the aircraft which carried a man infected with the influenza (H1N1) virus (formerly referred to as swine flu), after it landed at Pudong International airport in Shanghai from Mexico in this April 30, 2009 file photo. Hong Kong confirmed Asia's first case of the new H1N1 flu virus in a Mexican traveller on Friday, prompting authorities to seal off the hotel where the 25-year old man had been staying. The man, who was not identified, flew from Mexico to Shanghai on the AeroMexico flight, then on to Hong Kong on a China Eastern Airlines flight. He developed a fever after arriving in the territory Thursday afternoon, Hong Kong Chief Executive Donald Tsang told reporters. REUTERS/Stringer (CHINA TRANSPORT HEALTH POLITICS) CHINA OUT.
