Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS)  

Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS) is a viral disease that affects the respiratory system in humans and Arabian camels. While its impact on animal health is very limited, human infection has significant implications for public health.

The dromedary camel is considered the reservoir and animal source of coronavirus infection in humans.

In some Arabian camels, it causes mild symptoms in the upper respiratory tract.
