Mexico City businesses reopen, but international fears persist

All businesses in Mexico City can reopen Thursday after almost a week of closures due to concerns over swine flu, said Mexico City Press Office spokesman Salvador MacĂ­as. The Mexican government closed all nonessential government offices and businesses Friday as the number of confirmed cases of the virus known as H1N1 began to climb. Mexico has borne the brunt of the flu, with 942 confirmed cases, including 29 deaths, according to the World Health Organization
