This is a REALLY bad sign. This sounds a little like hemorrhagic fever, with seven cases and three deaths reported just in this one hospital. Symptoms include strange red spots on the body. Taken together with the reports of "plague" in Libya, something bad is going on.

Please post anything else you find on this one.
 
Re: Egypt: Panic affects people of Alexandria after the death of 3, and 7 exposed to a strange injury in the blood

The original source now has the following paragraph at the end:


الدكتور أسامة أبو السعود مدير مستشفى الشاطبى الجامعى بالإسكندرية، قال فى اتصال تليفونى لليوم السابع إنه ليس لديه تفسير لوجود أكثر من حالة فى المكان نفسه، واحتمال أن يكون التهابا سحائيا، ولابد من إجراء مسح صحى للمنطقة لمعرفة السبب الحقيقى للميكروب.. Abu Osama al-Saud, director of the University Hospital Shatibi in Alexandria, said in a telephone conversation for the seventh day that he had no explanation for the presence of more than one case in the same place, and the possibility that the inflammatory Zhaiia, must conduct a health survey of the area to find out the real cause of the virus .. والوفيات حالة واحدة ليست 3 حالات. And mortality and one is not 3 cases.

Interesting. That was just added. So this means, one mortality, not 3? I will change the title, if so. Although I see the title to the original article has not been changed.

And mortality and one is not 3 cases.
 
Re: Egypt: Panic affects people of Alexandria after the death of 3, and 7 exposed to a strange injury in the blood

I'm not so sure of the quality of that translation. This could be bacterial meningitis ("strain of the brain") with the red spots being from bacteria in the blood ("germs in the blood"). The last line of the add-on paragraph might also indicate only one death, not 3. This is certainly worth investigating further. I don't really know what to make of this. The reference to "son of Gary" might even be a disease name mistranslated, as Gary is not a typical Egyptian name.
 
Re: Egypt: Panic affects people of Alexandria after the death of 3, and 7 exposed to a strange injury in the blood

Actually, this is suspected at least to be bacterial meningitis. The "sample from the back" is probably a spinal tap. I don't know what the incubation period for bacterial meningitis is, though, and whether the timing would be correct.

Further information from knowledgable source would be appreciated.

this link http://www.flutrackers.com/forum/showthread.php?t=109901 had some suspect cases on 6-12-09 and the article was edited after release by the doctor.

your correct there was a spinal performed, the translation is bad as most are!

will have my wife read this one later.

Mersa Matruh (Arabic مرسى مطروح [Marsā Maṭrūḥ]) seaport in Egypt. It stands some 240 km (149 miles) west of Alexandria, along the shore of the Mediterranean Sea, on the main highway from the Delta to the Libyan border.

On looking at the onset dates, the suspected meningitis in Alexandria started on 6/2, which seems to be about a week earlier than the suspected plague in Libya. Between that and the distance between Alexandria and Libya, I don't think the two outbreaks are related.

And the fact that the doctor edited this article after it was published, takes some of the credibility out of the original reporter.
 
Re: Egypt: Panic affects people of Alexandria after the death of 3, and 7 exposed to a strange injury in the blood

my wife just read this a couple of times.

the first person was treated by the doctor for a bad case of chest congestion and sent home. just after returning home the spots began to developed, they the family, telephoned the doctor and he directed they go for testing at the hospital. then the girl came down with the same symptoms and died

the word "gary in arabic" means neighbor which is the third case spoke about in this article. that came down with the same symptoms and it indicates, it can be spread easily person to person.

they also try to say it could be something from the local slaughterhouse

and the edited version says it could be meningitis but from the 2nd till now i call bull of the edited version.

i have guest and need to good
 
Re: Egypt: Panic affects people of Alexandria after the death of 3, and 7 exposed to a strange injury in the blood

I think they are blaming the local slaughter house because of pigs and swine flu. Meningococcal meningitis would fit the description of the symptoms, and can be spread through close contact. So "son of Gary" should read son of the neighbor, which is consistent with the kids playing with each other.

By the "edited version" - Do you mean the last paragraph added? Were there any other edits?

We could really use a second source on this one.
