The hospital also receives other cases suspected of being infected with influenza, especially the more vicious the virus «avian flu». «المصرى اليوم» تجولت داخل مستشفى حميات العباسية، أعرق وأكبر مستشفيات مصر، كان الهدف هو التحدث مع السيدة «هناء» التى ترافق ابنتها، ورصد خروج أول حالة مصابة بعد شفائها، والتعرف على الجهد الذى يقوم به المستشفى فى مواجهة الوباء الجديد وإجراءاته الاحترازية، اخترقنا عنبر (٢)، أثناء وجود «مريم» بداخله، كان القسم معزولاً تماماً، وأبوابه الخارجية من الزجاج الألوميتال، «Egyptian today» toured fevers Abbasiyah inside a hospital, the oldest and largest hospital in Egypt, the aim is to talk with Ms. «Hana» accompanied by her daughter, and to monitor the situation with the first exit after the recovery, identification of the work done in the hospital in the face of the epidemic, and new precautionary procedures, Achterguena ward (2), while the «Mary» inside section was completely isolated, and the external glass doors Alolomettal, أما أبواب الغرف الداخلية، فكانت موصدة تماماً، والقسم بشكل عام نظيف وهادئ، غير أن اللافت أن الممرضات كن لا يُظهرن أى اهتمام بارتداء الكمامات داخل القسم، وهو نفس ما تلمسه مع معظم الممرضات والعاملين بأحد أخطر المستشفيات على الإطلاق.. The internal doors of rooms, was completely closed, and the section is in a clean and quiet, but it is interesting that the nurses were not shown any interest in the wearing of masks within the Section, which is the same as the touch with most of the nurses and hospital workers in one of the most serious at all .. ورغم تحويل عشرات الحالات المشتبه فى إصابتها بالوباء خلال الأسابيع الماضية، كانت مريم «محجبة» وترقد على سرير نظيف داخل الغرفة رقم ٧ مكيفة، بالقرب منها سرير والدتها، التى كانت تترقب حضور شقيقها لاصطحابهما إلى «كفر شبين»، مركز شبين القناطر، الذى لم تتمكنا من السفر إليه منذ قدومهما إلى القاهرة.. Although the transfer of dozens of cases of suspected epidemic over the past few weeks, Mary was «veiled» and lying on a bed in a clean room air-conditioned 7, near the bed, her mother, who was looking forward to attend her brother, escorted them to the «Kafr Shebin», Center for Shibin Qanatir, which did not unable to travel to Cairo since Kaddomanma .. فجر الاثنين الماضى، تحدثنا مع «هناء» والدة مريم، لكنها رفضت الحديث أو التصوير مع ابنتها، احترامنا رغبتها، ورغم أن التحاليل أثبتت سلامة الأم، لكنها لم تكتم مخاوفها من إمكانية حملها المرض، The dawn of Monday, we talked with «Hana» Mary, the mother, but refused to talk with her daughter or photography, our willingness, despite the fact that tests have proven the safety of the mother, but did not cover their fears of the possibility of carrying the disease, وهو نفس ما صرح به بعض الأطباء، خصوصاً أنها كانت ملاصقة لابنتها بالغرفة طوال فترة العلاج. This is the same as stated by some doctors, especially as it was adjacent to her room for the duration of treatment. بعد خروجنا مباشرة، سألتُ إحدى العاملات بالمستشفى عن عدم ارتدائها الماسك، فلم تقل سوى: «خليها على الله». Directly after the exit, she asked one of the hospital workers for not wearing Catcher, no less than: «Khaliha of God».blogspot.con/ |

Does not state what Hospital the were taken to
2 US students reported with swine flu in Cairo
By OMAR SINAN – 4 hours ago CAIRO (AP) — A foreign students' dormitory for the American University in Cairo has been put under quarantine for seven days Monday after two U.S. students were diagnosed with swine flu, health and university officials said. The two cases were discovered Sunday night after the students exhibited flu-like symptoms and tested positive for the virus. They were hospitalized and given Tamiflu, said a Health Ministry statement. "The building and the people inside it have been put under supervised quarantine, their temperatures are being been checked, and swabs have been taken from their throats and mouth and sent to laboratories," said Nasser el-Sayyed, an assistant health minister in the statement. "Some others have exhibited high temperatures and sore throats," he added. The ministry said that there were 234 people in the dorm, including 110 students from 10 different countries and they would be checked daily over the coming week. The 23-year-old students, a male from New Jersey and a female from Florida, arrived from the U.S. on May 28 for a summer program at the university, but didn't exhibit symptoms until Friday. Every year hundreds of foreign students take classes at AUC, which has a 5,500 person student body, 81 percent of whom are Egyptian. Police cordoned off the dorm building and sealed off part of the road leading to it, only allowing in dozens of pizza boxes. The dormitory is located in Zamalek, an upper class neighborhood of Cairo, home to many foreigners and embassies. The university itself recently relocated to the desert outskirts of the capital. AUC issued a statement saying that classes will be suspended until Sunday while the graduation ceremony scheduled June 16 and 18 will be held as planned. Egypt announced its first confirmed swine flu case June 2 after an Egyptian-American girl arriving in the country tested positive. Travelers arriving in Egypt are photographed, their body temperature scanned and addresses taken down in case further follow up is necessary. Egypt's government has come under criticism for its decision to slaughter the nation's 300,000 pigs in response to the swine flu problem. The move has elicited widespread criticism from international animal rights groups and was described as unnecessary by the World Health Organization. |

Regional NewsEgypt quarantines 234 in university dorm over H1N1Published Date: June 09, 2009 CAIRO: Egypt has detected the H1N1 flu virus in two students at the American University in Cairo and has put 234 students and staff under quarantine in a Nile island dormitory, health and university officials said yesterday. Police wearing face masks stood guard at barriers outside the multi-storey dormitory building in the upmarket neighbourhood of Zamalek that houses mostly foreign students and faculty. No one was allowed in or out. "There are two students who have confirmed positive H1N1 test results,university spokeswoman Rehab Saad El-Domiati said, adding that both infected students were American. "As a result, the dormitory has been quarantined for 24 hours. A third student with a fever was hospitalized as a precaution. The university, a popular destination for U.S. exchange students, suspended classes for the week, and all dormitory residents were being tested for the virus. Egypt, already hard hit by the much more deadly H5N1 bird flu virus, detected its first H1N1 case last week in a 12-year-old American girl who arrived for a holiday in the most populous Arab country. The case was the first in Africa. The airborne H1N1 virus has now been diagnosed in more than 21,000 people worldwide, and has killed at least 125, mostly in Mexico, according to the World Health Organization. Egypt, whose poultry industry was decimated by the arrival of bird flu in early 2006, fears another flu virus could spread quickly in a country where most of the roughly 76 million people live in the densely packed Nile Valley, many in crowded slums. Egypt had stepped up surveillance measures at the airport to try to prevent the arrival of the disease, including by installing thermal monitors that helped detect and swiftly isolate the country's first H1N1 case. But the American University students who tested positive for the virus were believed to have arrived in late May on two separate flights from the United States, casting doubt on whether Egypt's airport measures could detect all cases. Egypt has reported 29 human cases of bird flu this year inclu ding a toddler who tested positive on Sunday-nearly four times the number reported in 2008. - Reuters |

Five more cases of swine flu in Cairo dorm
3 hours ago CAIRO (AFP) — Five new cases of swine flu infection were discovered at a Cairo campus dormitory on Tuesday, Egypt's health minister Hatem al-Gabali told the state-news agency MENA. The American University of Cairo (AUC) campus residence in the upscale neighbourhood of Zamalek was quarantined on Monday after two American students were found to be infected with the A(H1N1) virus. Health workers took samples from the dormitory's 140 residents following the outbreak and the university announced it would suspend classes until Sunday June 14. But the health ministry has now decided to quarantine the residence for another week, Gabali told MENA on Tuesday. While the two infected students on Monday were both American, Gabali did not give the nationalities of the five new cases. An AUC official told AFP the university had received a call from the ministry informing them of the new cases, but that they had no further details. The latest cases bring the number of swine flu infections to eight in Egypt, where the government undertook a controversial cull of the country's estimated 250,000 pigs after reports of outbreaks in other countries. The authorities have stepped up checks of travellers at airports, quarantining suspected cases in makeshift centres. Egypt is already battling the deadly H5N1 strain of bird flu, which has killed 27 people since it was first reported in 2006. Swine flu has now spread to 73 countries with 25,288 people known to have been infected and 139 to have died since the disease was uncovered in April, the WHO said on Monday. |

Letting patients with H1N1 and H5N1 within a mile of each other is inviting one of the worst recombination possibilities one could think of. Taking a disease with a 63% CFR and giving it the contagion and spread capability of H1N1 is a sure fire road to The Stand. This is a worst case scenario. The Avian patient should be immediately taken to another facility.
How verified is this story? Why would any medical facility do this? Checking on this one. Definitely need a link - if one can be provided to a CREDIBLE site. Medclinician |

I heard that Vietnam has been giving an h5n1 vaccine trial to people at the same time that the swine flu is raging. If the vaccine was "live" or not a good lot then that could also cause the swine to mutate to more lethal form....it seems like one way or another this is not going to get better, only worse.

The sudden spike in bird flu related cases at a time when H1N1 is spreading in that region is alarming to say the least.
Is it a coincidence or are there other fsctors at hand?

Toddler latest swine flu case in Egypt
8 hours ago CAIRO (AFP) — An 18-month-old boy tested positive for swine flu in Egypt on Thursday, the state news agency MENA reported, as the World Health Organisation told diplomats it was officially declaring a pandemic. The dual US and Egyptian citizen arrived in Cairo from the United States with his family earlier this week, a health official told MENA. Diplomats in Geneva said WHO chief Margaret Chan has informed member states that it has decided to declare a swine flu pandemic by raising its alert to the maximum level six. Chan "confirmed that we would move to phase six," said an American diplomat at the end of a meeting with ambassadors. In Cairo the toddler was in stable condition in hospital and his family was being tested for the A(H1N1) virus. He was the second case reported in Egypt on Thursday after a 34-year-old Colombian in Cairo was found to be infected with the disease a day after her husband, who was recently in the United States, tested positive. The child was the 12th case after a 12-year-old girl travelling from America became the first reported case in Egypt and on the African continent on June 2. On Tuesday, the health ministry said it would extend a quarantine on an American University of Cairo residence in the upscale neighbourhood of Zamalek after five American residents were found to have been infected with the virus. Two students in the dormitory had tested positive for the virus the day before. By Wednesday a total of 74 countries were affected by the A(H1N1) virus, with 27,737 infections and 141 deaths reported to the international health agency. The authorities in Egypt began a controversial cull of the country's estimated 250,000 pigs, mostly reared by poor Christian farmers, after outbreaks of the disease in other countries. Egypt is already battling the H5N1 strain of bird flu, which has killed 27 people since it was first reported in 2006. The authorities have stepped up checks of travellers at airports, quarantining suspected cases in makeshift centres. |
