  • Egypt - Media report of suspected H5N1 bird flu cases in Sharqia? - December 14, 2015

    This article is confusing. It appears to reference only 6 bird flu H5N1 cases in the last year when there have been at least 24 confirmed cases. link.

    Or it could be referring to the present time frame. The MoH reported on December 13 zero cases so far this flu season. link

    Hopefully WHO will clarify the situation.
