ORLANDO, Fla. -- Eyewitness News has learned of Orlando's first confirmed case of swine flu. According to the chief medical officer for Adventist Health System, Loran Hauck, the case was diagnosed Tuesday morning.

"A case was diagnosed here in Orlando today on a tourist from Mexico who came to Disney attractions two days ago to visit," Hauck wrote in an email obtained by Eyewitness News.

No further details have been released, but Eyewitness News is working to learn specifically what days the tourist was at the parks and which park the tourist went to.

Details about the tourist, beyond being from Mexico, have not been released.

This is major international tourist hub. People from all over come to Disney. If it has traveled to the Magic Kingdom, it is now everywhere in the world.

Start a petition for that here:

www.thepetitionsite.com

Then post a new thread here with the link and we will make it go viral on the net. Pun intended.

Maybe they will wake up if 10 million people sign it.
