A resurgent H1N1 flu virus has infected 838 people in Egypt within the last week of 2010, bringing the total number of confirmed cases to 2172.
Egypt's Ministry of Health announced on Monday that 24 people died last week from the H1N1 virus bringing total to 80.
2172 cases 80 deaths Fatality rate is 3.68 (down from 4.8 previous week as more cases are confirmed)
History totals for 2009/10 (last season) The total positive confirmed cases reached to 16,373 with 281 confirmed related fatalities. 1.71 fatility rate. ---------------------
Seems to be similar situation to last season (as maintained by local authorities) (or very slightly worse).
I am unsure whether this is the same strain as the UK.
