BLOOD, INFECTION
Blood samples were collected from enrolled patients from three recruiting sites in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, between November 2016 and April 2020. MERS infection was confirmed by real‐time reverse transcriptase–polymerase chain reaction (RT‐PCR) assay. For this study, we used plasma samples that were collected in heparin tubes on Study Day 1, before the administration of study drugs.
