Pharmacist Nermeen Mohamed Saeed al-Banna died Thursday in a new case of H1N1, or swine flu, in the Beheira Governorate.
Damanhour Febrile Hospital admitted the 30-year-old on 17 November, after she began showing potential H1N1 symptoms such as an abnormally high fever, bone and muscle pain, congestion, runny nose, and headache. The hospital quarantined al-Banna after diagnosing her with swine flu based on a blood sample and throat swab analysis.
She died in the hospital Thursday evening.
There have been 16,481 confirmed cases of H1N1 in Egypt to date and 283 deaths. Concerns over the disease prompted health and education officials to delay school openings, and in some cases, close schools during the fall and winter of 2009-2010.
