"Professor David Heymann**: It's not yet known whether asymptomatic transmission occurs among humans, but clearly it occurs from camels to humans. The disease is now endemic in camels. The virus is carried in the nasal passages and transmits quite easily to humans."

This is absolutely incorrect. There is literature about asymptomatic MERS.

Our problem is our so-called experts do not know what they are talking about.

And just on a common sense point, he JUST said it occurs asymptomatically from camels to humans, but he's not sure whether it would happen from human to humans.

What on God's soon-to-be-destroyed Earth would be the mechanistic explanation for why it would happen between camels and humans but not humans and humans.

They're all just going to be lying their faces off for years now, I suppose.

Well, to be fair, you DID say God's soon to be destroyed Earth, so I suppose it's actually a matter of God's mysterious business, no? He's famous for working in mysterious ways.
