The death toll from the Middle East Respiratory Disease outbreak in South Korea has risen to 32 people, with latest 55-year-old victim being one of few patients who dies from MERS without having any additional health conditions.
The Health Ministry withheld the identity of the latest victim who died Saturday night due to privacy reasons, but said the man was diagnosed at the Samsung Medical Centre in Seoul on June 9 after contracting the virus.
