I keep hearing about "Camel Flu"
Uh... This is a slang used by the same people who called #Covid19 or #SARS-CoV2 "china flu", right??
Turns out, the *OFFICIAL* name is "Middle East Respiratory Syndrome"
*sigh*
Ok so...
#CamelFlu = Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS)
#MERS is caused by a #coronavirus (MERS-CoV) *not* #influenza
Of the MERS cases that were reported to WHO, 35% died
Typical #symptoms:
#Fever
#Cough
#ShortnessOfBreath
#Pneumonia
#Diarrhea
Not to be confused w/ #MRSA
