#MERS #Coronavirus Saudi Arabia Al-Batin Case Correction

On Saturday, September 7, 2013, I had made a post, regarding the cluster of ten confirmed cases in Al-Batin, Saudi Arabia.  I am mistaken.  It is a cluster of nine.  The case in question,  is the mother of what I refer to as the "Index Case" in that "cluster" - (38M) DOD 8/17 [ http://www.who.int/csr/don/2013_08_30/en/index.html ].

I obtained my information from the MOH Website in Saudi Arabia, but the site is a collection of media articles, at their website.    So I misunderstood, and stand corrected.  This is the link to the article:

The Case will be removed from my Spreadsheet, and will be categorized as "suspected".
