It has been too quite about this and 1/3 of the infected 483 people in Saudi Arabia have died of it. People should avoid contact with camels and if they have to be in contact with camels they should wear masks, gloves and wash hands before and after being in contact with the animals.

In April on the market in Riyadh, journalists reported that there were no signs of authorities and people had not received any information that camels could be spreading MERS. Sunday a Reuters journalist visited the market and only one out of 20 selling camels were wearing a mask and again there was no sign of the authorities.
