South Korea said no new cases of Middle East Respiratory Syndrome, or MERS, have been reported Saturday, raising hopes the country is winning the battle against the deadly virus.

So far, 24 people have died from MERS in South Korea and 166 have been sickened by the virus.

More than 6,700 people in South Korea have been placed in quarantine after having possibly come into contact with individuals infected with the disease.

Elsewhere in the region, Thailand confirmed its first case of MERS this past week.
