After reporting no new cases yesterday, the Saudi MOH is back today with another MERS report from Taif – which has been the site of nearly half of all the MERS cases reported since September.  

 

Today’s case is a 42 y.o. Ex-Pat, who is listed in critical condition.  No word as to a possible route of exposure, although the possibility of nosocomial exposure is under investigation.
