#MERS #Coronavirus Recent Case Listing

I have cleaned up my list, thanks to the information from the World Health Organization and Saudi Arabia's disclosure.  Here is a listing of some of the latest cases, from August 21st to present.  The case in Qatar, 59(M) has traveled to Medina Saudi Arabia before getting sick.  We had a case reported Wednesday (8/28) from Medina. The case we reported, is stated as contracting the virus from the "Eastern Province".  So if the Qatar case were to contract it from the case reported in Medina, the Medina case is reported to have caught it from the Eastern Provnce.    I do not usually put up "suspected" cases.  There is one on the list below.  The family of confirmed cases are always checked as part of the protocol, and KSA has been doing an excellent job.
