Already there, though, is the MERS virus, prompting concerns that pilgrims risk catching and spreading the disease.</p><p id="para20">MERS emerged in Saudi Arabia in 2012, and new cases continue to be reported. Of the <ext-link ext-link-type="uri" xlink:href="http://www.promedmail.org/direct.php?id=3628652" id="interrefs10">1500 cases so far</ext-link>, three quarters have been in the country, with more than 500 deaths, including three in Riyadh last weekend.</p><p id="para30">The concern is that pilgrims will pick up the coronavirus that causes the disease when they travel to Mecca, and unknowingly spread it to their country of origin. The disease has an incubation period of up to two weeks before symptoms become apparent. Earlier this year, MERS was brought to South Korea, where it infected 185 people, resulting in 36 deaths.</p><p id="para40">“The current outbreak is occurring close to the start of the Hajj, and many pilgrims will return to countries with weak surveillance and health systems,” warned the World Health Organization last week.</p><p id="para50">Saudi Arabia itself is thought to be well prepared. “They have agents on the ground and clinics devoted specifically to MERS,” says WHO spokesman Christian Lindmeier. “The authorities are on extremely high alert for the Hajj.”</p><p id="para60">He says pilgrims should avoid close contact with people who have flu-like symptoms, report any symptoms immediately, and avoid contact with camels, the main reservoir for the virus identified so far.</p><p id="para70"><italic>This article appeared in print under the headline “Pilgrims warned of MERS”</italic></p></body></pmc></record>Pour manipuler ce document sous Unix (Dilib)
