    Document: Unfortunately, there are no data available for MERS-CoV incidence between January and May 2013. Our results indicate that the number of MERS-CoV cases and deaths remained inconsistent from the beginning of June to the end of December 2013 and that MERS-CoV incidence peaked twice, in June and September 2013. MERS-CoV incidence was very low in the months of January, February, and March 2014; however, incidence was observed and then peaked at the end of April. Therefore, we expected that MERS-CoV incidence would continue to increase until the end of June 2014. Saudi Arabia is in the Northern hemisphere, where the incidence of influenza is highest in winter, peaking between December and March. 8 However, the highest rates of MERS-CoV cases and deaths were not observed in Winter, but in mid-Spring, between April and May.
