H1N1 Follow Up : In House Recovery

The ministry of health today has announced the infection of 15 new H1N1 cases in Egypt. All the cases are Egyptian. One of them came back from Saudi Arabia, one came back from Kuwait , 12 are connected to previous H1N1 discovered cases and one single case is unconnected to any previous H1N1 discovered cases.

Accordingly our infection toll has reached to 680 today.

The ministry of health also announced that it will start in its plan to treat the infected cases in their houses !! right houses ; it seems that our hospitals can’t control the situation in Egypt despite we have not declared the pandemic alert yet !!Or is the government hiding something not good in Egypt or may be the ministry of health is acting in a proactive way for the first time since a very long time and knows that we have a pandemic when the schools open their doors starting from the 26th of September !!?? God only knows !!

  1. This is weird somehow since it is the 1st time to hear about that decision! Since we've minds, let us think about it: maybe they are expecting a rise in the toll of people who get it especially in the 'Autumn' so they want to minimze the trasnfere of people who have it to minimize the infection? BUT on the other hand, this means we shall need a lot of doctors/nurses to follow up with patients which I think is hard to offer for every patient at home!

    I read yesterday that an arab country delayed studies for 1 month or so, but didn't follow up since it was on the news ticker so I wonder which country?! And what about us?
