      Welp, hopefully MERS can’t cross breed with COVID.  COVID has a case mortality of 1%.  MERS has a case mortality of 30%.

      The only redeeming factor with MERS is that it is intrinsically difficult to transmit person to person and kills too fast to get horrific.  But, if it can cross genes with the related COVID virus like flu viruses do then things get real bad real fast.  Like Smallpox or Plague bad.

      It’s worrying yes, but MERS has always had limited human‑to‑human spread outside close contacts or hospitals. If authorities do proper testing & tracing, the risk to the general public might remain low.
