It was one of the most affected governorates in Egypt in 1977 and 1978, to elucidate the degree of exposure to the virus especially after Darwish and Hoogstrall [1981] reported on 2 human cases and concluded that the virus still circulates in the Egyptian environment but, apparently, causes only sporadic human cases. Compliment fixation test and Haemagglutination inhibition test was used for detection of RVF antibodies in their sera, both tests showed negative results in all cases and controls

ABSTRACT

Seven known anti-amoebic drugs were tried on 175 cyst passers and the cases were followed up for two weeks after treatment. Diloxanide furoate and oxines gave the highest cure rates [100% and 92% respectively] with minimal side effects. Dehydroemetine gave a nearby cure rate [76%] but has the advantage of being cheaper. Oxines and dehydroemetine showed an excellent effect on the vegetative forms reaching 100% and 70% respectively
