Saudi MOH Reports 1 Additional MERS Case In Riyadh















#11,497


The Riyadh nosocomial outbreak of MERS-CoV at the King Khalid Hospital has slowed in recent days, but we continue to see sporadic new cases.

Today's case involves a 33 y.o. female Health Care Worker, who is listed in stable condition. 

This is, by my count, the 14th HCW infected in the past 10 days in this Riyadh outbreak.  While the majority have been listed as `asymptomatic', today's case is exhibiting symptoms.
