The first human case of avian flu in east Africa has been reported in Djibouti, a Red Sea state. The health ministry reported that samples taken last month from an infected person tested positive for the deadly H5N1 bird flu strain. Egypt is the only African nation where humans have been affected by the bird flu, according to the AFP. Researchers fear that the strain could mutate into a strain that passes easily among humans, which has killed five people in Egypt alone.”]
