It appears that swine flu may have hit a Bnei Brak talmud torah, which over recent days has reports a sharp increase in absences. As the week progressed it became apparent the numbers were growing rapidly, leading to the swine flu fears.
As a result, the students are requested to remain at home until they are certain the illness has passed Ladaat.net reports.
The unnamed talmud torah is home to 200 students.
