CAIRO (Reuters) - An Egyptian woman died from bird flu on Friday after
six days in hospital, the state news agency MENA said.

Warda Eid Ahmed, 27, from Beni Suef province, had been transferred to
hospital in Cairo on January 13 with pneumonia.

Health Ministry spokesman Abdel Rahim Shahin said she was the 11th
person in Egypt to die from bird flu out of 19 cases in humans since
February last year. The other eight have recovered.
