When it comes to announcing new MERS-CoV cases, the Saudi Ministry of Health has never been particularly lavish with details, but today’s announcement of two new cases (1 in Riyadh and 1 in Hafr Al-Baatin) reaches new levels of brevity.
Earlier today, the MOH posted The ministry of health (MoH) announces full recovery of two patients that contracted Coronavirus which dealt with the two asymptomatic cases first reported on Thursday in ProMed Mail, and then by the World Health Organization on Friday.
A second release – also dated today – describes two new cases – ages 26 and 19, who have already been released from the hospital.
A hat tip to @Ironorehopper on FluTrackers for posting this report.
First the Arabic translation – which indicates these patients were contacts of a previously diagnosed case – and the English version which makes no mention of exposure history.
