South Korea starts Mers containment strategy

57 minutes ago
Several more cases of Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (Mers) have been confirmed in South Korea and a fifth person has died, according to health officials.
In an attempt to stop the outbreak from spreading, the government has announced drastic measures including tracking those placed under quarantine.

Steven Evans has been looking at how the new containment strategy is being put into practice.

2015年5月29日，北京 - 中国国家卫生和计划生育委员会向世界卫生组织通报，中国发现一例实验室确诊的中东呼吸综合征冠状病毒病例。这是中国首例中东呼吸综合征冠状病毒病例。

该确诊病例为44岁韩国人，于5月26日途经中国香港入境广东省。患者为韩国中东呼吸综合征确诊病例的密切接触者。

目前，患者在广东省惠州市定点医院隔离。患者目前情况稳定，正在接受治疗。

韩国本周早前向中国通报：一名中东呼吸综合征确诊患者的密切接触者抵达中国。接到通报后，中国卫生部门迅速采取如下措施：

地方卫生行政部门对该名患者的所有已知密切接触者进行追踪；
广东省卫生和计划生育委员会向惠州派出专家团队，开展流行病学调查，并采集样本；
香港卫生部门正在对该名患者在港期间的密切接触者进行追踪。

根据中东呼吸综合征冠状病毒的现有证据，该病毒仅在有密切接触时才会发生人传人。目前尚未发现病毒可导致持续人传人的证据。

世卫组织正在与中国卫生行政部门密切沟通，支持中国的应对工作。

(CNN)South Korea's capital Thursday began asking more than 1,500 people to self-quarantine -- and is considering measures to force their isolation -- because they unknowingly attended a symposium with a doctor who was infected with MERS, Seoul's mayor said.

The announcement by Mayor Park Won-soon came amid a MERS outbreak in South Korea, where the respiratory virus has killed four people since May and more than 1,000 schools have been shut to prevent the virus's spread.

A doctor -- one of 41 confirmed to have Middle East Respiratory Syndrome in South Korea -- attended the symposium in Seoul in late May, after he began to have symptoms, Park said.

The doctor, who had treated a MERS patient earlier in the month, was quarantined May 30 and tested positive for MERS on June 1, Park said.

CNN- A fourth patient has died of MERS, or Middle East Respiratory Syndrome, in the largest outbreak outside of Saudi Arabia.

Six additional patients have been diagnosed, bringing the total infected to 41, said Michael Osterholm, director of the Center for Infectious Disease Research and Policy at the University of Minnesota, who has been in contact with South Korean doctors.

South Korea has quarantined more than 1,600 people as of Thursday, according to the Yonhap News Agency, the largest in the country. South Korea also has closed hundreds of schools, amid protests charging that the government has been too slow to contain the virus, which has killed more than 400 people worldwide since 2012.

City officials from Seoul announced Thursday that a medical doctor was in contact with more than 1,000 people while he was infected with MERS, according to Yonhap. The doctor, who works for a hospital in Seoul, attended several large events after he was ordered into quarantine.

Doctors don't know exactly how long people who are infected with MERS are contagious before they develop symptoms, said Peter Hotez, dean of the National School of Tropical Medicine at Baylor College of Medicine in Houston.

KUALA LUMPUR: Glove makers rose at midday on Thursday, bucking the cautious market, following news that the outbreak of Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS) in South Korea had spread.

Investors are expecting demand to pick up for gloves, though there could be a time lag.

At 12.30pm, the world’s biggest glove maker Top Glove rose 12 sen to RM5.42, Kossan added 12 sen also to RM6.70 while Hartalega gained five sen to RM8.34 and Supermax was up 4 sen to RM2.01.

The FBM KLCI was down 2.69 points or 0.15% to 1,746.48. Turnover was 644.50 million shares valued at RM694.26mil. There were 316 gainers, 359 losers and 303 counters unchanged.

Another factor could be that glove makers are beneficiaries of the strong US dollar as all their products are exported. The ringgit continued to lose ground against the US dollar to 3.7030 – the weakest since April 15 -- from the previous close of 3.6850.

Reuters reported South Korean President Park Geun-hye has demanded that everything to be done to halt the outbreak which began two weeks ago, brought into the country by a South Korean man returning from a business trip to the Middle East.

Two people have died in South Korea. With 35 cases, South Korea has the most infections outside the Middle East where the disease first appeared in 2012, and where most of the 440 fatalities have been.

About 1,600 people have been quarantined in South Korea, most of them at home or in medical institutions, a health ministry official said.

Hong Kong (CNN)The World Health Organization warned that the MERS outbreak in South Korea is likely to grow, as the number of people under quarantine crept up to 1,369 on Wednesday.

The Korean Centers for Disease Control and Prevention confirmed five new cases -- increasing the number of people with the disease to 35. These new cases were contracted within hospitals.

So far, two people have died after contracting the respiratory virus in South Korea in the largest MERS outbreak outside Saudi Arabia.

The first case, concerning a man who returned to South Korea after traveling to Saudi Arabia, Qatar, UAE and Bahrain, was reported on May 20. The person had not been ill during his travels, according to the World Health Organization.

More than 700 schools have shut to prevent the spread of the virus, according to South Korea's education ministry.

The extent of the outbreak in South Korea has taken many by surprise -- mainly because the virus has not been shown to spread easily between humans and the health care system in the country is considered to be sophisticated and modern.

South Korean President Park Geun-hye acknowledged problems in the country's early response earlier this week.

"Initial reaction for new infectious diseases like MERS is very important, but there were some insufficiency in the initial response, including the judgment on its contagiousness," she said.

She convened an emergency MERS meeting on Wednesday.

MERS is in the same family of viruses as SARS (severe acute respiratory syndrome) as well as the common cold. However, MERS does not spread easily between humans -- as far as scientists know at this point.

"So far, the virus has been circulating in humans for three years," said Dr. Leo Poon, a virology expert at the School of Public Health at the University of Hong Kong, who worked on the SARS outbreak more than a decade ago. "We found little transmission in human. We know there is human-to-human transmission, but it's not sustainable."

CNN)Two MERS patients have died in South Korea, marking the first deaths from an outbreak of the dreaded respiratory virus in the country, officials said.

The victims included a 58-year-old woman and a 71-year-old man who both had contact with the country's first MERS patient, South Korea's Ministry of Health and Welfare said.

So far, there have been 25 confirmed cases of Middle East respiratory syndrome in South Korea, including the two dead patients.

Officials are recommending the government temporarily ban people exposed to MERS from leaving the country to prevent the virus from spreading, said Kwon Jun-wook, a Health Ministry official.

During a Cabinet meeting Monday, South Korean President Park Geun-hye said there had been "some insufficiency" in her country's initial response to the virus and called for an "all-out" response to halt the spread of the disease.

Scientists studying how virus spreads
Scientists are still trying to discern how the virus is contracted. It can cause fever, cough and shortness of breath, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

Some people also have had gastrointestinal symptoms including diarrhea, nausea and vomiting, while people with severe complications from the virus suffered pneumonia and kidney failure.

For many people with MERS, more severe complications followed, such as pneumonia and kidney failure. About three to four out of every 10 people reported with MERS have died. Most of the people who died had an underlying medical condition, according to the CDC. Some infected people had only mild symptoms (such as cold-like symptoms) or no symptoms at all.

A paper published in July 2014 in the journal mBio said it might be airborne.

At the time, there was what the World Health Organization deemed a particularly alarming outbreak, in Saudi Arabia and the United States, CNN reported. The first cases were documented in spring 2012 and were linked to camels.

The researchers detected fragments of the virus in the air at a barn where four of nine camels were infected. They called for additional measures to prevent possible camel to human transmission, but also emphasized that more research was needed.

According to a May WHO report, between the 18th and 23rd of the month, the National Health Regulations arm of WHO received reports of four new cases of MERS in Saudi Arabia, including one death.

As of May 25,WHO had received 1,139 laboratory-confirmed cases of MERS globally, including at least 431 related deaths.

Most South Korea cases tied to first patient
In South Korea, officials reported that at least 19 of the 25 MERS patients in the country had been in medical facilities and were in direct contact with the first patient to be diagnosed with the virus.

Among those sick, five are in unstable condition, with one in critical. The first patient developed symptoms on May 11 and suffered from pneumonia and respiratory difficulty, but is in stable condition. That means, according to officials, that person's odds of surviving are greater.

At least 682 people are quarantined in their homes or at medical facilities, Kwon said.

Fear about the virus is gripping many in South Korea. There are no vaccines, no cures and the fatality rate for the illness is high.

Correspondingly, our TP is reduced from RM2.75 to RM2.30 based on unchanged 13x FY16E revised EPS. Our lowered target price also reflect a lower PER from 14x to 13x, taking into account the slower-than-expected new plant ramp up. Reiterate OUTPERFORM.
