Five fresh swine flu fatalities in Egypt

CAIRO, Jan 1 (KUNA) -- Five swine flu fatalities were reported here Friday, bringing the total to 141.
The Health Ministry revealed that the five victims included two women and three men.
The H1N1 swine flu-causing virus was first reported in Egypt in June 2009.
Meanwhile, WHO Director-General Margaret Chan said it was too early to say that the H1N1 pandemic was under control despite the low infection rates in some countries.
The mutation of the virus was a matter hard to predict but WHO would have its eyes opened if such development accord, said Chan. (pickup previous) ez.gta KUNA 012215 Jan 10NNNN
