Follow Ups : H5N1 in Egypt

I did not follow up the H5N1 cases in Egypt this week as I was so busy , seriously I could not keep it but now I am back on track.
One of the important things that happened this week is that there was a H5N1 suspected case in Alexandria , a Governorate that was far way from the outbreak , still we are not sure if it is a H5N1 positive case , if it is "insh Allah it won't" the infection may have came from poultry not from the Governorate but from the country side villages near the coastal city.
On Wednesday a 3 years old kid Mohamed Adel Abdel El-Salam was detained in the hospital for suspicion in H5N1 , his samples were sent to Cairo , hopefully insh Allah it will be negative and he will be released from the hospital
The good news that made me happy is that 7 detained cases were released last night from the hospital also in Gharbia as their results came negative from Cairo , they were detained in the last two weeks , thank God it turned bad flu.
