In a bid to control the avian influenza disease, which killed 15 people within thirteen months of the life of disease in Egypt so far, the Egyptian Shura Council adopt a draft law regulating the sale and circulation of live birds and slaughter methods.
The new law stresses the need to be carried out massacres in the slaughter licensed, and prohibits raising birds in the cities once, while allowing Petrtpitha in villages under strict veterinary control.
Legislation also provides the right to the Minister of Agriculture to ban the sale or transfer of live birds or the circulation in the areas determined, but the slaughter in syndicated licensed massacre, on the verification of the safety of birds replace the offense and moved to the nearest abattoir licensed to verify the validity and viability of the slaughter Olltdaoul and executed after the slaughter of live birds or imported by not prove safety or suitability for human consumption.
Death
The offender shall be in the new law, sentenced to no less ferocious than six months and a fine of no less ferocious about five thousand pounds (1USD = 5.70 Egyptian pounds) and no more than ten thousand pounds.
Losses figures
Emerged first human infection cases of avian flu in Egypt in the third week of March 2006, and discovered that after only one month of monitoring the first infection among birds.
During that period, even the preparation of this report the number of casualties thirty-five cases, died from fifteen case, most recently on the 11th of April 2007.
A formal report issued by the Information Center of the Egyptian Cabinet in April 11, 2007, the number of birds that have been destroyed in Egypt, due illness bird flu hit some 34.3 million birds valued at about one billion [Egyptian] pounds.
The report said that the volume of investments that were stopped due to the appearance of bird flu in Egypt is estimated at about 20 billion pounds, pointing to the fact that the balance of trade of poultry negatively affected, as it achieved a deficit of 80.5 million pounds in 2006 compared with a surplus of 40.5 million pounds in 2004.
Is it possible to adhere to the Egyptians and Egyptian law to reduce these losses? Or that there are some dissenting harshest Pushed?
I went round in the search for the answer.
The image of reality
Market Tuesday, South Giza example exposes how the Egyptians deal with the crisis dilemma concerned international organizations, to find a solution so far.
Despite the government ban on the transport of live birds between governorates, and to emphasize the need to resort to massacres collected licensed, stretched out large numbers of live birds from cages and Butt Oz, chickens, bath and other major roads market without any officer or link.
Birds came from neighboring provinces of Giza, Bani Suef and Fayoum, Giza and the villages themselves, with the flag, that these areas are discovered avian influenza infections among birds and humans alike.
Aldjajtan
One of the ladies, and they seemed of its few trick, insisted to buy Djajtin said they Educational home, refused for fear of the disease, reducing Sarhama from thirty-five to thirty pounds, stressing that Aldjajtin Slimitan, I stayed on my rejection.
Pressed again, she needs to Thmenhama to provide treatment for his son had just emerged from the delivery room in a hospital.
I hesitated for fear of fraud or begging, Vanthapt "zakat quarter of your children and twenty pounds, but" took them clemency earlier, and the blood started to face. Shortly after, I saw her carrying Djajtin other heading towards another client.
Aldjajtan left when another woman came from southern Egypt to sell to the poor warned some of the bargains amid harsh Teorha customers.
How she arrived Batiorha to the market despite the ban, replied, "God and Bishalha Benedi." They did not wish to elaborate, fearing that one heard here or there Faisaader Teorha and Egrmha.
Body of compassion
In a neglected corner of the market and away from relatively eyes, has come a group of women and men, with the raise compassion, on wooden planks mechanism heirs, rising slightly on the ground.
This is the corner of the slaughter and cleaning, where Amsadr for clean water and waste disposal Amnfv healthy.
In pots boiling water run-down, the knife has moved from the neck of a bird to another directly, hands tend to accelerate feathers without clean enough, with the remnants gathered manually slaughter of sand, and placed in containers outdated.
Customers of the women refused to talk but men were more daring and anger also.
Someone said shyly, "expensive fabric. What do? Chicks eat because their price is reasonable. The curtain is God."
Referring to the seriousness of the disease and the penalty imposed in the new law, he said, "Henshtgel eh? There is a place look forward to it .. Melnash de-filled .. Today, Aheini Mautne ball."
He added another "not known tasted meat or poultry a month ago because it is not me enough to buy beans for my children. What remains to eat if everything was contaminated and preparers?"
To some extent succeeded official efforts to limit the spread of avian influenza in commercial farms but they stood helpless in the face of the spread of the disease, and even endemic in rural areas.
So that all governorates of Egypt almost touched by the avian flu.
Although the report of the Council of Ministers, has estimated the losses at about one billion pounds within one year due to illness, so a new law addressing the issue of nationalism in its economic, social, health, thus considered a member of the Egyptian Shura Council Mr. Shawqi.
But Mr. say that the legislation and official warnings alone will not suffice to control the disease failed to other countries and international organizations in control.
It therefore calls for an active role for each of the elements of the government and the people, civil society and parties to these efforts bear fruit.
One option
The spokesman for the Ministry of Health, Dr. Rahman Shahin blame goes to the rural population and say they are now facing one option either safety or Sqmahm.
Shaheen said in an interview with the BBC that the Ms. collaborating with birds that put muzzle on her nose [i.e. wear a mask when slaughtering poultry], Kvaza in their hands, and replaced with another bootstraps when dealing with live birds or slaughtered.
He noted that the problem now is concentrated in rural household birds that are difficult to control.
He appealed to farmers and non-farmers promiscuity birds directly, to be cleaning tools used in the slaughter of birds and circulation periodically, and the disposal of waste healthy.
A new breed
Beginning of this year turn avian flu disease in Egypt to the new breed [i.e. the Tamiflu resistant strain] has thus become available treatments are unable to prevention, recognition of the World Health Organization.
And to be convinced ordinary Egyptians like those in this market seriousness of the disease and enable the authorities to find effective solutions to address it, keep avian influenza threat stand each section.
