#10,418

 

Over the past 13 days Saudi Arabia has reported no fewer than 35 MERS cases (see list below), with all but a couple coming from the capital city of Riyadh.  Most have been linked to either a familial or nosocomial outbreak, although for some cases no source of infection has been determined.

Today the MOH announces another case, that of a 63 year-old female, whose exposure risks are under review.
