Document: A 63-year-old man developed fever, chills, and myalgia on June 10, 2015. On May 27, he visited the emergency department of a hospital that had previously reported several cases of MERS. During this time, he stayed in close contact with a laboratoryconfirmed MERS patient. He was quarantined on May 27, 2015 at his home and he developed fever and chills, nausea, anorexia, and myalgia after the quarantine isolation. He was then moved to an institutional isolation care unit where real-time RT-PCR was conducted twice on sputum samples in 48-hour-intervals and resulted in negative findings. He was afebrile but his gastrointestinal discomfort and myalgia continued, and the isola-tion location was changed to his home on June 2, 2015 because he was improving. On June 8, he became febrile with symptoms of cough, dyspnea, and myalgia, which gradually deteriorated. He was tested again and the results returned positive for MERS-CoV on June 10. Radiographic findings revealed far-progressed bilateral peripheral radio-opacities.
