Saudi Arabia reports new MERS case in Riyadh
Saudi Arabia's Ministry of Health (MOH) recently reported a new MERS-CoV case, which involves a 71-year-old woman from the capital city of Riyadh.
The woman's contact with camels isn't known, and authorities have classified her exposure to MERS-CoV (Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus) as primary, meaning she probably wasn't exposed to another sick patient, according to an update to the MOH's epidemiologic week 24 report.
