As can be seen from the graph below, the peaks of MERS-CoV detection have been driven by humans and their infection prevention and control issues - but what maintains the virus in between those lapses?
It seems clear that MERS-CoV is entrenched among camels in the Middle East and Africa but how is it getting to humans, and how is it dong that in such small numbers over such a wide area? These have been questions for 148 weeks.
It's a good thing this infection transmits so poorly between humans.
