And he pointed that the lesson is by the results and not by the speech after the decrease of the injury degree to 97% through 7 weeks.

The increase of the unemployment

The deputy Hamdi Hassan demanded drawing the confidence from the government and accused it of the damages to the people's interests and the waste of the investments of the industry of the poultry and that reached 18 billion pounds. And he confirmed in its interrogation of the government in front of the People's Assembly yesterday the bird flu disease is considered a disaster by all of the measures that the citizen and the Egyptian family sipped.

And he pointed that the failure of the government in the dealing with the disease was done to the occurrence of serious damages that injured the industry of the poultry in a killing. And exceeded on its trace of the unemployment numbers after many of the industries related to the industry of the poultry stopped.

And Hamdi Hassan said that The United States of America raised the fear in the world after the president George Bush went to the mass media a frightened or started warning of the seriousness of the disease and its spread while Donald Rumsfeld the American Minister of War has cooperated and production a drug Tami Flou and who his non effectiveness was proved in the disease treatment through Gilid company and that heads the council of its administration. And he realized following that millions of dollars.

The government influenza

And the deputy Farid Ismail described in his interrogation around the same issue the bird flu that it the government influenza, pointing to the randomness of the governmental dealing with all of the disasters and the satisfaction with the reaction policy which led to the complete failure facing all of the crises that came in succession with the arrival of the current government.

And he said that the entrance of the deals of the coloured feathers and the birds rests from affected countries by the corrupt were done to the entrance of the virus to Egypt.

And the Chinese serum came the importer who is not used in China herself so that it eliminates the remainder from the domestic wealth of Egypt [dodgy Chinese vaccine?], and it is verified the corrupter are a wealth from the deal of this serum it comes to billion pounds where its sale took place with the compulsion to farms owners the poultry are the sum of 480 pounds whereas its value does not exceed 40 pounds.

And the deputy in its interrogation said that the government erred in a strategic mistake in the entrustment of the common committee chairmanship to the Ministry of Health and was the initial is its entrustment to the Ministry of Agriculture.

Also the badness of the government dealing led to broadcasting the fear in the citizens souls which incited them to throwing the birds an alive in the canals and the rivers and the ways which caused an environmental disaster.

And the government ran the crisis by a terrible media machine that succeeded in broadcasting this fear and the fear and the worry between the citizens crowds and abstained the people about an eating or until the approach to any kind of his kinds the birds.

And he added that the death rate in Egypt is few by comparison in Cambodia and Vietnam.
Sure, the Case Fatality Rates (CFR) have been worse in both Cambodia and Vietnam than Egypt: Cambodia had 6 (known) deaths out of 6 (known) cases (100% CFR) in 2005-06; Vietnam, 42 deaths out of 93 cases (~45% CFR) in 2003-05.

Egypt has seen 5 deaths out of 13 cases (~38.5% CFR). However, that's in less than 2 months, from 03/17/06 to 05/04/06.

Vietnam's worst year was 2005 when they had 61 recorded cases -- spread over 12 months (although I don't know what the dates actually were), that's an average of 5 cases per month. Egypt has seen 13 cases in less than 2 months -- an average of 6 cases per month -- worse than Vietnam's worst year.
