N-95 mask, gloves, goggles, and gown are the minimum Standard Precautions an EMT should take when transporting a patient infected with Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS).

Middle East respiratory syndrome (MERS) is a viral disease of the respiratory system brought on by the Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus (MERS-CoV), which was initially discovered in Saudi Arabia in 2012.

Frequent coughing, fever, and shortness of breath are typical MERS symptoms.

Although pneumonia is common, MERS patients may not always have the illness. Additionally, among MERS patients, gastrointestinal symptoms such as diarrhoea have been documented.

Examples of personal protective equipment that shields the wearer from liquid or particle contamination of the face include surgical and N95 masks.

Some other precautions include using gloves and other type of PPE includes goggles and gown.

The correct answer is less oxygen is absorbed by the body.

An infection of the lung parenchyma is what is meant by the term pneumonia. Health care workers must keep in mind that pneumonia is an umbrella word for a group of syndromes produced by a range of organisms, resulting in a diversity of presentations and consequences, rather than viewing it as a single disease. An infection of the lung parenchyma results from a number of diseases together referred to as pneumonia. There have been numerous attempts to categorize pneumonia according to its etiology, the clinical situation in which the patient contracted the infection, the pattern of lung parenchyma involvement, and other factors. This article examines pneumonia using the American Thoracic Society's system of classification.
