A(H1N1) in Eqypt


Egypt reported on Tuesday another case of influenza A/H1N1, bringing the total number of the flu in the populous country to 67, according to the Ministry of Health.

The new case is a 12-years-old girl who came from United Arab Emirates (UAE), Health Ministry spokesman Abdel Rahman Shahine said.

He said that the health condition of the new case is stable after proper treatment, adding that 38 of the country's total 67 cases have recovered.

Egypt reported its first A/H1N1 flu case on June 2, a 12-years-old Egyptian-American girl coming from the United States via the Netherlands.

Egypt, the most populous Arab country that was hit hard by the fatal bird flu in 2006, decided in late April to cull all pigs in the country to stem the highly infectious flu A/H1N1.

According to the World Health Organization (WHO), the disease has infected more than 70,000 worldwide and killed 311.
