Saudi MOH Announces 1 New MERS-CoV case
#12,346
After a lull of 7 days without reporting a new MERS case, the Saudi MOH today has announced a primary (Direct Camel Contact) case in Al Kharj, in a 54 y.o. male who is listed in stable condition.
There are a total of 10 active cases receiving treatment in Saudi Hospitals. We've not heard of any new cases in the Wadi Al Dawasir Cluster - which produced at least 10 cases earlier in the month - in nearly two weeks.
