Slovakia's health minister says the country's first case of swine flu has been confirmed in a Slovak citizen.

Richard Rasi says the 37-year-old man was hospitalized in a university clinic in the Slovak capital after the disease was confirmed on Thursday.

The man returned from the United States on May 22 and developed mild symptoms several days later. Clinic doctor Vladimir Rolny said his condition has improved since and he currently has no problems.

Rolny said the man is expected to be released in the next few days. He said the man's wife who traveled with him has no health problems.
