How Many Will Die?

The Egyptian government finally admitted that many cases of the Avian Flu were discovered in its territory. I am very concerned about the safety of our people. The government has no safety regulations and some people can be extremely dirty and ignorant. In many neighborhoods people raise their birds (chicken, pigeons, ducks, geese, etc) in their households either at their roofs, their basements, or their balconies. I think we need to ban these practices. Yes, Egyptian poultry tastes better than American ones because they are not fed with hormones; however, we do not have any safety rules and things go unwatched in our beloved Egypt. We are lucky that the virus did not mutate until now to cause human to human infections but if this becomes the case, I expect thousands, if not millions, in Egypt to die. God be with us.
