Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS) and Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS) are dangerous diseases caused by coronaviruses. SARS started in bats and spread to humans through live animal markets, while MERS comes from camels and can spread between people, especially in healthcare settings. Both diseases are a global health concern. Scientists are urgently working on developing treatments and vaccines to combat these deadly viruses.
