A 66-year-old woman from the Swansea area was confirmed as Wales' second swine flu case.
She has mild flu symptoms, has been offered antivirals and is recovering at home.
Her illness is related to travel to an affected area.
The NPHS is tracing close contacts to check if any have flu symptoms and to offer them antiviral medicine.
Antivirals are offered as treatment to people who are ill and to aid prevention to people who are well but have been in close contact with a case.
