Abstract

Background: Environmental factors plays a very crucial role in the spread of infectious diseases especially those that are transmitted via pathogenic droplets such as MERS-CoV and Ebola. Recent data suggest a higher prevalence of MERS-CoV infection in dromedary camels in winter months compared to summer months within middle eastern countries. It is speculated that increase animal-to-human transmission in winter could exacerbate the putative human-to-human transmission via respiratory secretions.
