Egypt to kill all pigs, will that protect it from swine flu?
The Egyptian authorities announced that they will slaughter all pigs in Egypt as a swine flu precaution, a move considered ineffective by many experts.
The virus can be transmitted from one person to the other now, and pigs are no longer the source of danger. That was the point that many health officials cited to criticize the decision.
Some Egyptian bloggers considered the move a governmental crackdown on the Copts, a Christian minority in Egypt, the main breeders of pigs in Egypt.
