At least one Cairo-area private school has <\/strong><strong>closed early for the Christmas holiday<\/strong> and two others have sent updates to parents amid warnings that this year\u2019s flu season could be particularly nasty. New Cairo British International School (NCBIS) said it was sending students and staff on holiday early \u201con advice from the Ministry\u201d and would re-open as planned on 12 January 2020. The decision was made for \u201cthe health and safety of everyone,\u201d the note said. The American International School in Egypt (AIS) reportedly told parents earlier this week that it had found its <strong>first \u201creported case that tested positive for H1N1 virus\u201d<\/strong> (that\u2019s the so-called \u201cswine flu\u201d). Cairo American College (CAC) said last night that it doesn\u2019t currently see the need to close early, but urged everyone to \u201ctake everyday preventive actions to help stop the spread of the flu virus.\u201d<\/p><p><strong>Have more than a couple of people in your workplace? <\/strong>Take basic precautions, folks. Remind staff to cover their mouth and nose when they cough, to wash their hands often, and to stay home if they have flu-like symptoms.<\/p><p><strong>Should you be freaked out? Not yet.<\/strong> But you need to pay attention. The US Center for Disease Control warns that flu season could peak earlier this year, with the apex of the annual outbreak possibly coming this month. Kids and the elderly are particularly vulnerable to complications. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.webmd.com\/cold-and-flu\/flu-guide\/default.htm\">WebMD has lots more about the flu<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/arstechnica.com\/science\/2019\/12\/this-years-flu-season-is-off-to-an-early-unusual-start-cdc-says\/\">Ars Technica<\/a> has a good rundown on CDC\u2019s warnings as well as on reports that this year\u2019s flu includes an \u201cunusual type\u201d that\u2019s dominating the early start to the season.<\/p><hr class=\"grey-line\"><p><strong>Look for the EGP\u2019s rally this week against the greenback to continue getting attention in<\/strong><strong> the<\/strong><strong> press<\/strong> as analysts line up to explain what the currency\u2019s improved performance means for the future. There are diverging opinions on where the EGP will be next year, with Naeem Brokerage\u2019s Allen Sandeep <a href=\"https:\/\/af.reuters.com\/article\/egyptNews\/idAFL8N28R4JT\">telling Reuters<\/a> the FX rate could hit EGP 15.75 \/ USD 1 in 1Q2020, while Renaissance Capital\u2019s Ahmed Hafez tells the newswire the currency could weaken in 2020. RenCap sees lower inflows from fixed income portfolios and reduced Egyptian treasury purchases, and expects the current account deficit to push a depreciation in the EGP, \u201cwhich is already trading at a premium to its long-term average REER [real effective exchange rate].\u201d<\/p><p><strong>*** Tell us what you think will happen in 2020 and maybe we\u2019ll send you an Enterprise mug and our very own coffee:<\/strong> Your view on where the EGP will be next year is one of the key questions in our <strong>2020 Enterprise Reader Poll<\/strong>, which also asks you if your company is hiring, how optimistic you are about the economy in the new year, and other questions designed to take the pulse of our community.

According to El Gamal, the feed-in tariff for sewage-to-energy electricity, which the government set at EGP 1.03 \/ kWh, is low and would not justify investing EGP 2.4 bn. The company would therefore rather direct its investments to more profitable projects, including solid waste, the tariff for which is EGP 1.40 \/ kWh.<\/p>\n\t<\/div><!-- .entry-content
