Bird flu infection rates down 40 percent since start of 2008 says Egyptian government
Egypt's Supreme Committee to Combat Bird Flu - a government body - said on 2 February that infection rates among poultry in farms and in backyards had dropped by an average of 40 percent since the beginning of 2008, due to media campaigns and vaccination drives.
Ayman Kaffas, a spokesman for the Committee, said no new suspected human bird flu cases were confirmed in January, reflecting the positive steps taken by the national committee in cooperation with the Ministry of Health, the Ministry of Agriculture, the World Health Organization (WHO), local councils, as well as veterinary officials and the media.
