No new MERS cases, fatalities in South KoreaThere were no new cases of the Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS) in South Korea on Monday (Jun 29), and fatalities remained at 32.POSTED: 29 Jun 2015 08:40 SEOUL: No new cases of the Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS) were reported in South Korea on Monday (Jun 29) for the second consecutive day. So far, 182 people have been infected with the MERS virus, with fatalities remaining at 32. The outbreak started on May 20 when a 68-year-old man was diagnosed after returning from a trip to Saudi Arabia. Since
then the potentially deadly virus - for which there is no vaccine - has
spread at an unusually rapid pace in the Asia's fourth-largest economy,
becoming the largest outbreak outside Saudi Arabia and sparking public
alarm at home and elsewhere in Asia. South Korea's government is facing criticism for failing to stop the outbreak. http://www.channelnewsasia.com/news/asiapacific/no-new-mers-case/1947156.html |
