The European Union's health commissioner urged Europeans on Monday to postpone nonessential travel to the United States or Mexico due to swine flu.
EU Health Commissioner Andorra Vassiliou met with the EU foreign ministers on the subject as Spain reported the first confirmed case of swine flu in Europe. That was also the first swine flu case outside North America.
On arriving in Luxembourg, Vassiliou advised Europeans to reassess their travel plans.
She told reporters "they should avoid traveling to Mexico or the United States of America unless it is very urgent for them."
EU foreign ministers discussed the outbreak of swine flu on Monday and the EU health ministers were holding an emergency meeting on the subject Thursday.

Is this all it took to finally stop illegal immigration?

Seems to be the right time to tighten borders and quarantine illegals. We all know they will try to flee to the north to escape the virus. Put our military on the border and cut off travel back and forth 100% The billions we give Mexico to fight the drug war, which they don't use it all for(corrupt trash) they can give it back to us in exchange for medicine. If they don't like that in my honest opinion they won't be missed.
