"Look like the intuition of Mers beginning to spin out of control is happening.

WHO will need to advise HOW to stop the virus propagation.

Look like the intuition of Mers getting more and more serious are coming true. It is blessing that 2013, no case is reported during Haj.

But for this round may not be so lucky, infection and spreading could be serious if people all over the World start to congregate.

WHO needs to come in to determine HOW to :-
Find the real source of Mers – that is, is it from camels or bats or other source.
For eg. If from camels, is the camel farm seal and quarantined and eradication of virus take place like how chicken farm are being done to eradicate the H7N5?

Also, is the infected camels served as food and infect the diners?

If from bats, then is the cave or dwelling areas for bats are sealed and quarantine and eradication of virus conducted?

If not from camels and bats – then need to find the real source.
(2) More radical control and quarantine put in place to ensure visitors all properly checked, contacts are traced and when foreign visitors returned home – checked and quarantine to ensure no Mers infection – before rejoining the society."
