Re: Egypt - Media report: of Health Announces State of Emergency after 6 Bird Flu H5N1 Deaths in Last 3 Weeks

I feel this situation has existed for the last 2 years due to the endemic H5N1 poultry situation in Egypt but the cases were largely under reported for a variety of reasons: political, economic, health mismanagement. Families have traditionally kept a few chickens at their homes and this has not changed:

2010 = 29 cases & 13 deaths

2011 = 39/15

Egypt revolution 2011 causing turmoil in public health sector

2012 = 11/5

Egypt military coup 2013 further causing turmoil in public health sector

2013 = 4/3
