Does the dangerous new Middle East coronavirus have an African origin?
(University of Bonn) The MERS-coronavirus is regarded as a dangerous novel pathogen. To date all cases are connected with the Arabian peninsula. Scientists from the University Bonn (Germany) and South Africa have now detected a virus in the faeces of a South African bat that is genetically more closely related to MERS-CoV than any other known virus. The scientists therefore believe that African bats may play a role in the evolution of MERS-CoV predecessor viruses.
