Solange better get tested for MERS!!!!
Camels appear to be a link in the MERS chain
Camels may be one clue. In a paper published earlier this week, researchers said they had isolated the live MERS virus from two single-humped camels, known as dromedaries. And in February, scientists published a finding that nearly three-quarters of camels in Saudi Arabia tested positive for past MERS exposure.
MERS was also found in a bat in Saudi Arabia, the CDC says.
"The way humans become infected from an animal and/or environmental source is still under investigation," the WHO said last month.
