Baku – APA. One of Thailand's leading hospitals, known for treating medical tourists, said on Friday it had received the country's first case of Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS), as authorities said it had taken nearly four days to confirm the illness, Reuters reported.
Thailand said on Thursday a 75-year-old businessman from Oman, who had traveled to Bangkok for medical treatment for a heart condition, had tested positive for MERS.
MERS was first identified in humans in Saudi Arabia in 2012 and the majority of cases have been in the Middle East.
