A 59-year-old Mexican resident was hospitalized on April 24 with signs of fever, shortness of breath, diarrhea, nausea, and discomfort. The patient, who had already been bedridden for weeks with multiple other underlying conditions, died from the complications. The sample taken after his death tested positive for influenza A (H5N2).
