Re: Egypt - Confirmed Human H5N1 Cases Have Dropped 75% from Recent Years - Or Current Public Health Crisis Complicates Accurate Assessment?

If we look at both the FluTrackers human H5N1 case chart and the WHO Human H5N1 case chart we can see a large decrease in confirmed cases occuring since early 2011. If there are no more confirmed cases in Egypt in the next 5 months of 2012 (or only 1 or 2), then the numbers will tell us that the confirmed cases have dropped up to 75% in recent years.

Hospital, which closed more than ten days and continued closing until the day of the Feast disaster pays simple bill the patient who does not have the costs of treatment in private hospitals, but in charity clinics .. The growing disaster when we know that this hospital ancient does not serve the people of Alexandria, but also serves the region west of the Delta and searching for reasons to close the hospital in the face of Mardi overriding find it is in ongoing attacks on doctors and workers with sticks and Schumann and bladed weapons of various types by thugs and some people sick so it came During the past few days to assault by beating on one of the doctors in the course of performance of their work and Shlha front sight and hearing of all hospital staff!!!

And complete disaster as a result of acts of bullying to destroy equipment and medical equipment and state suffered losses of up to millions of pounds ..

we asked Dr. Osama Abu Saoud, director of the main hospital campus for truth without smearing and put it in front of whom it may concern, who replied by saying .. As a result of the loose security reality community has long been exposed hospital almost daily attack from thugs whether relatives of patients or accompanying them or the patients themselves and this attack begins infringement verbal and evolve until it reaches the striking doctors and hospital personnel weapons white this thing happens under the nose of police and members of the military police who are silent, without any interference of them due to the issuance of orders from authorities Alaliat after dealing with the public, even sacrifice their presence inside the hospital does not make sense and the consequent closure of the hospital for long periods of unavailability of safety and security for doctors and staff, which had a negative impact on the medical team fully Whether doctors and nursing staff, prompting them to refrain from work and supports their position of what passed for the general assembly of the union of doctors of their right to sit and refrain from work.

Now even the hospital closed Landry what do we do? Asks Dr. Abu Saud said .. Who will bear the results of what is happening in the hospital? .. Of course simple patient who suffering and turn to him because he does not have even the cost of treatment in clinics, charities and not private hospitals .. And the status of the main hospital campus and close to patients trodden Acanutorahbasha says Abdul Basit, head of the university hospitals in Alexandria .. Unfortunately the situation is very bad but is a humanitarian disaster, by all measures to close a section of emergency and reception in front of patients as a result of infringement continuous and insult is acceptable for doctors and employees, prompting them to sit and refrain from work because we did not find any cooperation from the security authorities to achieve the demands of doctors to provide protection and security for them in while on duty professional ..

Nowhere

Hospitals. Attacks against these facilities is increasing. Medical staff called for a general strike in protest, and patients are the first to pay the price.

In turmoil

To access the emergency department of the University Hospital of Al-Hussein, you have to cross a long corridor. The rooms are dark and places like an old house deserted by its occupants. The emergency department is completely deserted. The windows are broken, the broken doors and overturned chairs. Syringes and medicine boxes lying on the ground. The medical staff is not found. A strange scene for Hassan, an official of 30 years, came with his wife to give birth. There is nobody to take care of his wife. Seeing that his wife is about to give birth, he has no other choice but to leave the hospital soon to get another. A few minutes later, a distraught mother comes to take her daughter crying, suffering from acute appendicitis. Then an elderly lady, covered with bruises, ambulance arrives. Following a seizure, she had a bad fall but can not find anyone to submit care. Accidents, childbirth, falls, dizziness, suicide attempts, fractures ... affluent patients and find no care.

The hospital is certainly open, but the medical staff is absent and patients are left to their fate. "My older brother had a lung infection. He had a crisis and he needed oxygen to breathe. I toured the emergency department at Al-Darb Al-Ahmar and Gamaliya between 8am and 14:45. Some were closed and others had no place or no oxygen. Finally, he died as soon as he found a place, "says Karim, tears in her eyes.

The doctors of the hospital closed the reception room and the emergency department to protest against the increasing attacks against medical personnel who experienced genuine moments of terror these days. It all started when a dozen young people have returned about one o'clock in the morning, one of their friends who had been wounded with a knife after a violent struggle. Young died, despite efforts by the doctor to save him. Angry young ransacked the emergency department. The windows were shattered and equipment were destroyed. "We were forced to leave the operating room to escape the fury of the attackers," said a general practitioner guard who broke her hip fleeing and had to undergo surgery. But it is not the only incident. A few days later, a doctor was attacked by the family of a patient because he looked priority, another dying patient. Attacks against medical personnel, especially in the emergency department, multiply.

Indeed, the university of Al-Hussein is not alone in suffering such attacks. The hospital Umm al Masréyine also closed its emergency department 2 months ago due to attacks. Armed men stole medical equipment and medicines and stabbed a nurse who was on their way. Most major public hospitals in Cairo Qasr Al-Aini like, Ain Shams, Al-Hussein Ahmad Maher Al-Mounira Al Sahel Al-Demerdach Al-Zahraa, Shubra and Sayed Galal were attacked. And many other hospitals in the governorates have suffered the same fate as the hospital in Al-Ahrar Sharqiya and Port Fuad in the governorate of Port Said, as well as hospitals in Sohag and Mansoura. Following these attacks, some hospitals have opted for the closure of emergency departments, others have decided to open two days a week for 5 or 6 hours, while others have hired a security service to protect medical staff and patients. The public hospital in Ras Sidr flatly closed sine die after being attacked by Bedouins.

Patients abandoned to their fate

Just do a tour of the hospital to collect the distress of patients. Hundreds or even thousands of patients every day flock to hospitals and are faced with departments practically empty.

The citizen finds herself alone with this difficult situation. "I have to analyzes for more than 15 days, but whenever I have, I am told that medical specialists are on strike and only they can do this kind of analysis except for emergencies," said a fifties near the Al-Mabara hospital in the district of Old Cairo. "The poor citizen is the only loser in this story because the state does not care of the patient, as well as doctors, otherwise we would quickly solved this problem for the benefit of citizens," said another person obliged to turn hospitals to find assistance. With the participation of resident doctors to strike, the situation worsens and hospitals are completely paralyzed. Indeed, the absence of resident doctors,
