Saudi Region

 

#10,392

 

For the past couple of weeks we’ve been following an extended outbreak of MERS in and around the Capital city of Riyadh. As of today, at least 13 cases have been confirmed by the Saudi Ministry of Health

 

Although the information provided on the MOH website is fairly cryptic, it has been apparent that contacts of family members, and nosocomial contacts, have been infected.  Additionally, some cases have no known risk exposures listed.

 

Today the Ministry of Health has posted a long statement regarding a family cluster, apparently in response to criticisms lodged by family members to the media.   First, a (translated) excerpt from one of the media sources of the accusations, then the MOH response.

Saudi Ministry of Health and health affairs at the Ministry of National Guard issued a joint statement on Thursday, made it clear the recording of cases of HIV Middle East respiratory syndrome Coruna central Saudi family in Riyadh region. The family has accused the Ministry of Health of causing the injury of six members with the virus, the lack of follow-up to one of its members who was formerly the disease and neglect checking the rest.

The tired-Harbi, a family member, said on Wednesday that four of his family contracted the disease, including his mother, who died, and three of his uncles. He said, adding: "My father virus wounded first, but in spite of it remains in intensive care for five days, but the hospital is directed, declaring that he is no longer suffering from it, which is what caused the transmission of the virus to my mother, who died outcome, and after the virus has moved to my brother, who is currently lying in Prince Mohammad Bin Abdulaziz Hospital with three of my uncles because of the virus. "

He continued, "I attended a medical committee of the Ministry of Health to our house after Thbot injury and my father HIV and conducted tests for a limited number of the family, and they told us that the results were negative. and asked them to check the rest, but they refused, knowing that the effects of the disease were visible on my mother. "

The index case (the father) who remains hospitalized, appears to have had recent camel (“beauty”) contact. Subsequently his wife has succumbed, and two sons have been hospitalized.  At least one other family member is isolated at home.

 

Apparently these charges have induced the MOH to take the unusual step of publishing a formal response (see below), where they acknowledge the family cluster, but do not directly address the family’s allegations.

 

As machine translations often lose some context and flavor along the way, if and when an English language statement is published, we may be able to glean more from it.

Hadith Prophet Muhammad

It is narrated on the authority of Amirul Mu’minin, Abu Hafs ‘Umar bin al-Khattab, radiyallahu ‘anhu, who said: I heard the Messenger of Allah, sallallahu ‘alayhi wasallam, say: “Actions are (judged) by motives (niyyah) , so each man will have what he intended. Thus, he whose migration (hijrah) was to Allah and His Messenger, his migration is to Allah and His Messenger; but he whose migration was for some worldly thing he might gain, or for a wife he might marry, his migration is to that for which he migrated.” [Al-Bukhari & Muslim]

Abu Hamzah Anas bin Malik, radiyallahu ‘anhu, who was the servant of the Messenger of Allah, sallallahu ‘alayhi wasallam, reported that the Prophet, sallallahu ‘alayhi wasallam, said: “None of you truly believes (in Allah and in His religion) until he loves for his brother what he loves for himself.” [Al-Bukhari & Muslim]

About History

The urgent of reading history is that we become aware of his past life, progress and destruction of a nation, understand the wisdom behind the nation's history, feel the love, angry, sad, all within the scope of history. Because history is an art. Art is beauty. So people who do not know history, its own history, at least then he would not know the beauty of the wheel of life that applies to every person.
