The study, conducted by scientists of the 55 cases mers that exist in the Middle East indicate that the virus is difficult to spread between humans. However, it is likely the virus will mutate and cause a greater threat.
Scientists from the Pasteur Institute in Paris found that this virus is spread only on a limited number. Figures possibility of transmission between humans is 0.69. This means that three patients affected mers will only transmit the virus to one or two others.
"To date virus Mers not dangerous enough to be a plague to the world. Yet this is no reason for everyone to underestimate him. This is a good time to stop," said Professor Arnaud Fortanet, as reported by the BBC.
Dr. Benjamin Neuman of the University of Reading argues that scientists have done a great job with identifying possible mers become a global threat that is quite small. However, research also shows that the Mers can change and mutate. For that, there is no reason to assume this virus underestimated, although for now the spread of the virus is still slow.
