A new SARS-like virus has been spotted in the Middle East believed to have killed at least one person in Saudi Arabia, the AP reports:
Health officials don’t know yet whether the virus could spread as rapidly as SARS did or if it might kill as many people.
“It’s still (in the) very early days,” said Gregory Hartl, a WHO spokesman. “At the moment, we have two sporadic cases and there are still a lot of holes to be filled in.”
