I did a quick translation for our French speakers. Thanks to SteveoSteen who first found out that the French Health Minister was visiting Egypt today with a bunch of scientists, to ascertain the situation there.

CAIRO, Feb 18 (KUNA) -- Egyptian Health Minister Hatem Al-Gabali denied here Sunday that mutation might take place in some bird flu cases in Egypt.

Le Ministre de la sant? ?gyptien, S.E. M. Hatem Al-Gabali a ni? aujourd'hui dimanche que (des) mutations(s) prenaient place dans quelques cas de grippe aviaire en Egypte.

Le Ministre ?gyptien parlais lors d'une conf?rence de presse conjointe avec son homologue fran?ais Xavier Bertrand, affirmant le bon effet du m?dicament Tamiflu lors du traitement des cas de grippe aviaire.

The Egyptian minister was speaking at a joint news conference with his visiting French counterpart Xavier Bertrand, affirming the good effect of Tamiflu drug in the medical treatment of bird flu cases.

He added that Egyptian-French cooperation in the fight against bird flu included the French provision of masks to prevent the further outbreak of the killer disease, especially for those who directly deal with birds or infected human cases.

Il a ajout? que la coop?ration ?gypto-fran?aise dans la lutte contre la grippe avaire incluait la fourniture fran?aise de masques afin de pr?venir l'?largissement de la maladie mortelle, particuli?rement pour ceux qui s'occupent directement des oiseaux ou des cas humains infect?s.

The Egyptian minister cautioned against domestic bird breeding, which, he claimed, leads to the aggravation of the virus, noting that all state agencies are involved in a national drive to combat the highly serious disease.

Le Ministre ?gyptien a mis en garde contre l'?levage domestique d'oiseaux, dont, il dit, qu'il m?ne ? l'aggravation du virus, notant que toutes les agences d'Etat sont actives dans l'?lan national de combat de la tr?s s?rieuse maladie.

For his part, the French minister of health stressed the importance of cooperation with Egypt in the fight against the killer bird flu disease, denying that the pandemic stage might have happened following human-to-human transformation.

Pour sa part, le Ministre fran?ais de la sant? a soulign? l'importance de la coop?ration avec l'Egypte dans la lutte contre la maladie de la grippe aviaire mortelle, niant que le stade pand?mique puisse s'?tre av?r? apr?s une transformation d'humains ? humains.

He added that his visit to Egypt was aimed to get better acquainted with the latest bird flu developments in the country, hailing the Egyptian side for dealing with the situation in an earnest and transparent manner.

Il a ajout? que sa visite en Egypte avait pour but de mieux se familiariser avec les derniers d?veloppement de la grippe aviaire dans le pays, f?licitant le c?t? ?gyptien qui traite la situation de mani?re s?rieuse et transparente.

However, he called for more efforts to reinforce French-Egyptian cooperation and share experience in the field of combating the disease.

Il a, cependant, appel? ? (faire) plus d'efforts pour r?inforcer la coop?ration ?gyptienne et partager l'exp?rience dans le domaine de la lutte contre la maladie.

Earlier on Friday, the Egyptian Ministry of Health said the number of bird flu-caused human death cases rose up to 13 since the outbreak in Egypt after a female villager died of the virus in Fayoum Governorate, south of Cairo.

Plus t?t vendredi, le Ministre ?gyptien de la sant? a dit que, apr?s qu'une villageoise fut d?c?d?e du virus dans le Gouvernorat de Fayoum au Sud du Caire, le nombre de cas humains mortels caus?s par la grippe aviaire s'?tait ?lev? ? 13 depuis (son) apparition en Egypte.
