More than 650 cases of Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (Corona) have been reported from around the world by official national and international public health agencies in 20 countries through May 18th, 2014. These countries are the highlighted countries in map below. This is more than a three-fold increase in countries reporting Corona cases in the last year. In May of 2013, only six countries, France, Germany, Jordan, Saudi Arabia and Tunisia, and the United Kingdom had officially reported Corona cases.
The next map depicts the geolocation of both imported cases and local infections of Corona in Europe, North Africa, and the Middle East. The Corona cases included on this map include both confirmed and probable/suspected cases. The size of the circles represents the relative number of Corona cases at each location. Saudi Arabia has reported the largest number of Corona cases; more than 80% of all the Corona cases in the world have occurred in Saudi Arabia.
