El-Sissi – who attended the press conference – did not know the details of =
the announcement in advance and were “surprised” by what they heard.
Heggy said he was not consulted about the announcement and expressed regret =
that Egyptian specialists in Hepatitis C and HIV had not been consulted =
beforehand.
“An issue this sensitive, in my personal opinion, could hurt the image of =
the state,” Heggy said, adding that foreign newspapers could utilise the =
