This is a large number of physicians to have perished from 'H1N1'. Wouldn't they have had at least one immunization since 2009 that may have proffered some immunity? Wouldn't physicians be a bit more adept at preventative measures to safeguard their own health? If it is H1N1 of the 09 variety, it seems to have gained some 'kick'.

Update: Doctors Syndicate requests enquiry into alleged swine flu cases
By:
Mada Masr

The Doctors syndicate has requested an enquiry into the suspicious deaths of four doctors, which some speculate are linked to another swine flu outbreak in Egypt.
...

Mina went on to add that the Health Ministry?s compensations for infectious illnesses and contagious health hazards range from a mere LE 19 to LE 30 (around $US 3 to 5) per month ? while, on the other hand, the Ministry of Justice provides its judges with monthly compensations for infectious illnesses, which are several times higher than those allocated to doctors...

That's an unjustifiable discrepancy, in my opinion.
