Pubblicato il 10/11/2012Read time: 1 min

A case of pneumonia caused by a novel coronavirus, temporarily named nCov-EMC, has been confirmed by the Ministry of Health of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. The patient, who is now recovering and out of intensive care, is a man who has been hospitalized in Ryadh a few days ago, with symptoms of an acute respiratory syndrome. He has no significant travel history and, one week prior to disease onset, he reports having visited a farm.

Saudi health authorities reported that this case is not epidemiologically linked to the other two recent cases of SARS-like coronavirus infection, both related to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

The feasibility of this goal, however, now seems more uncertain than ever, even though many considered this aim too ambitious from the outset.
