    Document: Middle East respiratory syndrome (MERS), which is caused by β-coronavirus of the C lineage (MERS-CoV), ranges in severity from asymptomatic to a severe respiratory illness with rapid progression to respiratory failure [1] . Since the identification of the first case in Saudi Arabia, the World Health Organization (WHO) has been notified of 1,638 laboratory-confirmed cases, including 587 fatal cases, in 26 countries as of February 26th, 2016. These confirmed cases have been directly or indirectly linked to countries in the Arabian Peninsula [2] . Although the exact mode of transmission remains unknown, primary MERS-CoV infections are presumably associated with community zoonotic exposure and may be passed to family members via limited secondary transmission [3] . Human-to-human spread of MERS-CoV is assumed to occur through close contact, such as caring for or living with an infected person [4, 5] . As infected people have spread MERS-CoV to others in hospitals, the importance of vigilant surveillance and appropriate infection control measures must be emphasised to prevent transmission in healthcare settings.
