Saudi MOH: 1 New MERS Case, 5 Recoveries, 1 Death
# 10,173
Offering a bit of good news for a change from the ongoing Hafuf cluster (n=28) which began in mid-April, KSA's MOH reports 5 recoveries, along with one death and no additional cases there today.
The one new case announced today comes from Turaba, located in Makkah Province in western Saudi Arabia. Other than listing him as a 73 y.o. Saudi male, in critical condition, we are provided no clues as to how he came to be infected.
