Snippet: Subsequently, Victor Max Corman et al 7 isolated a virus named "Neo CoV" from South African Neoromicia capensis bats, and this virus has 85% similarity with MERS-CoV, with even higher rates for some specific viral RNA segments. Additionally, MERS-CoV has been found to grow better in bat cells than in human, bovine, cat, and swine cells. 8 Interestingly, within this article, it is noted that the Great Horn of Africa, where Neo CoV was discovered, .....

Additionally, MERS-CoV has been found to grow better in bat cells than in human, bovine, cat, and swine cells. 8 Interestingly, within this article, it is noted that the Great Horn of Africa, where Neo CoV was discovered, is also a place where camels are transported and traded. Therefore, the original transmission from bats to camels may have occurred in sub-Saharan Africa.
