Spanish newspapers reported quoting European diplomats that the Spanish King has delayed an official visit to Tunisia as country’s President is diagnosed with the H1N1 virus, commonly known as the swine flu. President Zain Al Abidin Bin Ali is said to have caught the disease from his grand-daughter. Earlier, the Tunisian presidency announced that President Bin Ali has fallen sick and that he needs five days of rest to recover. Meanwhile, Tunisia called off the annual pilgrimage to Mecca for the first time because of a lack of swine flu vaccines.
