Christian Drosten,Benjamin Meyer,Marcel A. Müller,Victor M. Corman,Malak Almasri,Raheela Hossain,Hosam Madani,Andrea Sieberg,Berend Jan Bosch,Erik Lattwein,Raafat F. Alhakeem,Abdullah M. Assiri,Waleed H. Hajomar,Ali Albarrak,Jaffar A. Al-Tawfiq,Alimuddin Zumla,Ziad A. Memish +16 more
TL;DR: The rate of secondary transmission among household contacts of patients with MERS-CoV infection has been approximately 5%, and the data provide insight into the rate of subclinical transmission of MSPS coronavirus in the home.
Journal ArticleDOI

Victor M. Corman,Ali Albarrak,Ali S. Omrani,Mohammed M. Albarrak,Mohamed Elamin Farah,Malak Almasri,Doreen Muth,Andrea Sieberg,Benjamin Meyer,Abdullah M. Assiri,Tabea Binger,Katja Steinhagen,Erik Lattwein,Jaffar A. Al-Tawfiq,Jaffar A. Al-Tawfiq,Marcel A. Müller,Christian Drosten,Ziad A. Memish +17 more
TL;DR: In a study of viral load, shedding, and immune response in 37 cases of Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus infection, virus was not eliminated upon development of neutralizing serum antibodies.
Journal ArticleDOI
Human infection with MERS coronavirus after exposure to infected camels, Saudi Arabia, 2013.
Ziad A. Memish,Matthew Cotten,Benjamin Meyer,Simon J. Watson,Abdullah J. Alsahafi,Abdullah A. Al Rabeeah,Victor M. Corman,Andrea Sieberg,Hatem Q. Makhdoom,Abdullah M. Assiri,Malaki Al Masri,Souhaib Aldabbagh,Berend Jan Bosch,Martin Beer,Marcel A. Müller,Paul Kellam,Paul Kellam,Christian Drosten +17 more
TL;DR: A case of human infection with Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus after exposure to infected camels is investigated and analysis of the whole human-derived virus and 15% of the camel- derived virus sequence yielded nucleotide polymorphism signatures suggestive of cross-species transmission.
Journal ArticleDOI
Presence of Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus antibodies in Saudi Arabia: a nationwide, cross-sectional, serological study

TL;DR: A nationwide serosurvey in Saudi Arabia to establish the prevalence of MERS-CoV antibodies, both in the general population and in populations of individuals who have maximum exposure to camels found that antibody prevalence was significantly higher in camel-exposed individuals than in thegeneral population.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The results of this study revealed that coronavirus PLP confers a variable virulence trait among members of the species SARS-CoV, and that a Sars- coV lineage with virulent PLPs may have pre-existed in the reservoir before onset of the epidemic.
