Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS) coronavirus cases, raising the
number of infection to 414, including 115 deaths.
The new deaths including one man and two women were reported in
Jeddah. Two of the new cases were of females in their fifties and
registered in Riyadh, and the third one is a man in his sixties in
Medina, who was receiving treatment at the ICU.
Meanwhile, one infected woman in her forties fully recovered and was

three medical centers in the country that are dedicated to receive only
MERS coronavirus cases. More centers will be opened soon.
The first such case was diagnosed in 2012. Despite the registering
of new cases on a daily basis, the World Health Organization has not yet
declared the infection as epidemic.
