    Another report on Nora Saber Abdalmenji, the suspected case who has died in Al Fayyum -- and the second suspected case from the same governorate, Hanan Ramadan Mohammed, who has been hospitalized. From this report, it sounds like Hanan's husband *might* also be a sus case (not sure though).

    Also, culling of birds in Al Qalyubia governorate....

        That site is, unfortunately, not updated very frequently. The updates there are pretty sporadic, actually (bit better on the Arabic page, but not by much). One never knows if/when one will get any 'news' there.

          Nigeria has gone the same way after a promising start. How quickly governments develop "bird flu fatigue". It makes me concerned about the level of transparency we'll see during the inevitable pandemic...

            I believe that the 20F has now been confirmed (or at least a 20F nearby has been confirmed). This case also appears to be adjacent to the Nile and south of Cairo.

              No word in the press yet?

              There's been bf in Al Fayyum before -- recall that the Egyptian guy who was sick in Jordan with bf was from Al Fayyum.

                I believe the new case is from Beni Suef, so this case may be unrelated to the 20F reported earlier. The confirmed case is not doing well, but I have not seen details yet. I believe she is hospitalized in Giza.

                    I don't think this is the woman in Al Fayyum who died since there is no mention of a death in this report from MENA. The name doesn't really seem to match the other cases in Al Fayyum either -- in fact, none of the suspected cases we have on the list.

                    There was a person admitted to hospital on Jan 13th in Mahalla [Al Gharbiyah] who is 27, but I thought that patient was a male:
