Ministry of Health press conference attended also by U.S. Ambassador and head of NAMRU-3.

No H2H (in Egypt, I guess).

Naima Abdu Gamil's condition good -- she's expected to be discharged from hospital in a couple of days.

Egyptian national pandemic plan includes "the establishment of an operation room for crisis management in the cabinet and the Egyptian Ministry of Defense..."

Also, Tamiflu (or maybe oseltamivir) to be (already being?) manufactured in Egypt.
