Presidential Adviser for Health and Prevention Affairs Mohamed Awad Tag El Din said Egypt’s coronavirus infection curve is still within the expected range, pointing to the positive correlation between the infection cases and deaths, MENA reported on Monday.
Speaking to Extra News channel on Monday, Tag El Din said the treatment protocol in Egypt is one of the best ways for treating the virus patients, noting that there is no specific COVID-19 treatment protocol for the positive cases.
Egypt had started the clinical trials using the Japanese antiviral drug Avigan, he pointed out, wishing it would be successful in treating the infected cases.
The presidential adviser urged citizens to follow the precautionary measures against the coronavirus, stressing the state’s decisions aim to prevent crowds and protect their lives.
