In fact, these symptoms began not on the 16th, but two or three days earlier. The Ministry of Health\u2019s monitoring systems reported 8 cases of intestinal flu at Daraw Hospital and 22 cases in the Abu al-Rish area.&#8217;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"700\" height=\"350\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-62289\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.lovin.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2024\/09\/24134332\/Copy-of-Lovin-Article-Feature-Image-2024-09-24T134155.647-large.jpg\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.lovin.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2024\/09\/24134332\/Copy-of-Lovin-Article-Feature-Image-2024-09-24T134155.647.jpg 700w, https:\/\/cdn.lovin.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2024\/09\/24134332\/Copy-of-Lovin-Article-Feature-Image-2024-09-24T134155.647-medium.jpg 250w, https:\/\/cdn.lovin.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2024\/09\/24134332\/Copy-of-Lovin-Article-Feature-Image-2024-09-24T134155.647-120x60.jpg 120w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">He further elaborated that tests on diarrhea samples revealed the presence of this colonic bacterial infection, which is typically found in contaminated water or food. He noted that the analysis, conducted by the central laboratories in Cairo, confirmed the findings.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The Minister highlighted that the severity of the illness varies depending on the strain of <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">E. coli<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">, with some strains causing more severe symptoms. He stated, &#8220;It is normal to encounter cases of diarrhea and vomiting, but certain mutated strains can pose a greater risk.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Dr. Abdel Ghaffar also explained that <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">E. coli<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> bacteria are transmitted through water contaminated by feces or improperly handled food. This group of bacteria can cause infections in the digestive system and urinary tract, leading to severe stomach cramps, diarrhea, and vomiting. He added that people with weak immune systems are at higher risk for severe illness.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The Minister emphasized that symptoms can last from one to five days and the infection can spread between individuals.
