For this study, we used the publicly available World Health Organization (WHO) MERS global epidemiologic data (World Health Organization 2019) to assess characteristics, clinical information, global distribution status, and probable risk factors associated with MERS-CoV patient mortality. In this worldwide comprehensive survey, were analyzed publicly available data from the WHO website:(http://www.who.int/csr/don/ archive/disease/coronavirus_infections/en/) related to laboratory-confirmed MERS-CoV cases from September 23, 2012 until June 18, 2018. The current study focuses on the epidemiological trend of MERS-CoV infection and mortality rate analysis of its worldwide cases in the aforementioned dates. Therefore, it might be more appropriate to conduct further large-scale epidemiological studies with complete data related to all morbid cases of MERS to obtain a better understanding of MERS-CoV emergence in humans and also associated risk factors related of this infection. ./cache/cord-264901-w285on4x.txt ./txt/cord-264901-w285on4x.txt
