With the exception of media outlets, no official reports about human avian influenza cases (H5N1) are available for the public and accessible through internet, as the Ministry of Health of Egypt removed Media Reports page as well as any link to tables, figures and other tool useful to track the evolution of H5N1 in humans in the country.

It is really advisable that the tools will be put online as soon as possible to improve knowledge and confidence among the public and concerned people.
