  We present the discovery of XRF 050215B and its afterglow. The burst was
detected by the Swift BAT during the check-out phase and observations with the
X-ray telescope began approximately 30 minutes after the burst. These
observations found a faint, slowly fading X-ray afterglow near the centre of
the error box as reported by the BAT. Infrared data, obtained at UKIRT after 10
hours also revealed a very faint K-band afterglow. The afterglow appear unusual
since it is very faint, especially in the infrared with K>20 only 9 hours post
burst. The X-ray and infrared lightcurves exhibit a slow, monotonic decay with
alpha=0.8 and no evidence for steepening associated with the jet break to 10
days post burst. We discuss possible explanations for the faintness and slow
decay in the context of present models for the production of X-ray Flashes.
