Unfortunately, that's pretty much not what we have recorded. :(

Going by AnnieB's fantastic spreadsheets (hat-tip, AnnieB!), we've recorded a total of 8 suspected cases in Ash Sharqiyah governorate since Feb 13, 2007. So, it seems we've caught 1 out of 3 suspected cases from Ash Sharqiyah in the last 4 months. Not good -- but better than our national average (for Feb 11 - Apr 03) of 1 out of 4 (which I calculated back on May 13).

We're definitely not hearing about all suspected cases in Egypt.
