Qatar today announced two cases of the H1N1 flu virus in two foreign children who arrived from the United States and Austria, the first cases in the country. The two boys showed flu symptoms on arrival, were given treatment and were recovering, the health minister Abdullah al Qahtani said in comments on the state-run Qatar News Agency. The first case was a two-year-old boy from New Zealand who arrived on Saturday with his family from Austria and the second was a two-and-a-half-year-old American boy who came from New York on Sunday via Bangladesh, the minister said.
The UAE's first swine flu patient was discharged from hospital after fully recovering from his symptoms at the end of May. Flu cases have also been detected in Saudi Arabia, Kuwait and Bahrain. * Reuters

How to come clean about financial infidelity
- Be honest and transparent: It is always better to own up than be found out. Tell your partner everything they want to know. Show remorse. Inform them of the extent of the situation so they know what they are dealing with.
- Work on yourself: Be honest with yourself and your partner and figure out why you did it. Don’t be ashamed to ask for professional help.
- Give it time: Like any breach of trust, it requires time to rebuild. So be consistent, communicate often and be patient with your partner and yourself.
- Discuss your financial situation regularly: Ensure your spouse is involved in financial matters and decisions. Your ability to consistently follow through with what you say you are going to do when it comes to money can make all the difference in your partner’s willingness to trust you again.
- Work on a plan to resolve the problem together: If there is a lot of debt, for example, create a budget and financial plan together and ensure your partner is fully informed, involved and supported.
