Islamabad, Aug 13 - Pakistan's second swine flu case was detected Thursday, with a 13-year-old boy testing positive at the Faisalabad Allied Hospital after a series of tests were conducted on him due to the lack of proper detection kits.

A Faisalabad district health officer confirmed the case to DawnNews and said the teenager was responding to treatment.

The infected teenager, Abdullah Maqbool, is a resident of Toba Tek Singh and had recently traveled to Saudi Arabia, where he is believed to have picked up the virus.

'The boy has been shifted to an undisclosed location in the hospital and authorities are preventing anyone from meeting him or his family,' DawnNews said.

The Faisalabad Allied Hospital lacks quarantine rooms or swine flu detection kits.

Pakistan's health ministry reported the country's first swine flu case Monday.

Also on Monday, Health Minister Ijaz Hussain Jhakrani told the National Assembly, the lower house of parliament: 'We have taken precautionary measures at our airports, ports and bus stops. Health officers have also been alerted.'
