Egypt was hit by the Bird flue last year and according to the latest news still there and about. so that is the reason I said avoid eating it, if you think is ok then that is fine.

I don't think you can actually get bird flue from eating chicken.

You can contract the virus if you are handling infected birds but I've never heard of anyone catching it from cooked chicken.

the following is an article from the BBC website. Advice for travellers
