Last week we learned of the death of a 16-year-old girl from Assuit Governorate in Upper Egypt. She was Egypt's 23rd bird flu fatality.
Since then, we've learned that several members of her family are either quarantined, or are under observation, with some showing flu-like symptoms.
We've not heard any updates on their condition, which may be good news. Egyptian authorities rarely seem to announce negative results.
Today, Dutchy on Flutrackers brings an article from almasry-alyoum.com, this time with a 4-year-old suspect case.
Egypt, of course, has tested literally thousands of suspect cases over the past two years, and of those, only 51 have proven positive for the virus.
