Male nurse in Jeddah dies of coronavirus
Last updated: Sunday, April 06, 2014 10:53 PM


Saudi Gazette report

JEDDAH ? A male nurse, who was in a coma after contracting the Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus (MERS-CoV), died Saturday night, hospital sources were quoted as saying by the Sabq news website.

Bandar Bin Salim Al-Kuthairy, 27, who worked for King Abdulaziz Hospital in south Jeddah, got infected with the virus just two days after getting married.

A colleague of Al-Kuthairy was quoted as saying that he left for his village in Madinah province to tie the knot with a girl there, but came back two days later to the hospital suffering from breathing difficulties and a high fever.

The nurse contracted the disease before leaving his place of work as there were three similar cases in the emergency ward, said a relative of the victim.

However, Dr. Isha Mutwali, director of preventive medicine, denied the nurse had contracted the disease inside the hospital.

She added that sufficient precautions had been taken to protect hospital staff against the disease.

But Al-Kuthairy?s father Salim told Al-Eqtisadiah Arabic language daily that his son got the virus while nursing some patients in the hospital who had the disease.

Dr. Sami Badawood, director of Jeddah Health Affairs, said the male nurse was the first Saudi to fall victim to the virus in Jeddah.

He said the hospital?s staff, especially those who interact with patients regularly, were examined and were found to be free from the virus...
