Meanwhile, In Saudi Arabia . . .





















# 10,110

While Korea, China, and Hong Kong are grabbing the MERS headlines right now, Saudi Arabia - which has by far the lion's share of MERS cases - reports three more today.  

Two from Hafuf - which has seen a total of 14 cases over just 5 weeks - and one from Taif, which has now reported 4 cases over the past couple of weeks.

All 14 cases from Hafuf appear to be epidemiologically linked, although the details are sketchy. Today's case from Taif is also linked to a previously identified case.
