Although no human H5N1 cases have been identified in Israel to date, this is not the first time there have been suspected human cases in Israel.

A 2006 outbreak among poultry in Israel (perhaps the first outbreak there) resulted in several suspected cases.

This outbreak was also not associated with a massive increase in ?worried well? hospital admissions. Only 24 patients (21 adults and 3 children) came to local hospitals due to self-defined or general practitioner-defined suspected avian flu during March 2006. Five of these 24 persons (4 adults and 1 child) indeed met the case definition of suspected case and were hospitalized, but none had laboratory-confirmed H5N1 infection.
