2015年5月，在阿拉伯联合酋长国，通过在2名接触受感染单峰骆驼的男子中发现活动性病例，确定了无症状中东呼吸综合征冠状病毒感染。流行病学和病毒学研究结果表明人畜共患病传播。来自这些人和骆驼的病毒的基因序列与最近在其他国家发现的病毒相似。
In May 2015 in United Arab Emirates, asymptomatic Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus infection was identified through active case finding in 2 men with exposure to infected dromedaries. Epidemiologic and virologic findings suggested zoonotic transmission. Genetic sequences for viruses from the men and camels were similar to those for viruses recently detected in other countries.
