Such diseases are of particular danger during mass gathering and mass influx events, as large crowds of people in close proximity to each other creates optimal opportunities for disease transmission. The Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan and the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia are two countries that have witnessed mass gatherings due to the arrival of Syrian refugees and the annual Hajj season. The mass migration of people not only brings exotic diseases to these regions but also brings new diseases back to their own countries, e.g., the outbreak of MERS in South Korea. Many emerging pathogens originate in bats, and more than 30 bat species have been identified in these two countries. Some of those bat species are known to carry viruses that cause deadly diseases in other parts of the world, such as the rabies virus and coronaviruses. However, little is known about bats and the pathogens they carry in Jordan and Saudi Arabia. Here, the importance of enhanced surveillance of bat-borne infections in Jordan and Saudi Arabia is emphasized, promoting the awareness of bat-borne diseases among the general public and building up infrastructure and capability to fill the gaps in public health preparedness to prevent future pandemics.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/v12121413","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,12,9]],"date-time":"2020-12-09T09:17:58Z","timestamp":1607505478000},"page":"1413","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":8,"title":["Bat-Borne Coronaviruses in Jordan and Saudi Arabia: A Threat to Public Health?"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"12","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-0064-0190","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Laith N.","family":"AL-Eitan","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Biotechnology and Genetic Engineering, Jordan University of Science and Technology, Irbid 22110, Jordan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-1035-0130","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Amneh H.","family":"Tarkhan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Biotechnology and Genetic Engineering, Jordan University of Science and Technology, Irbid 22110, Jordan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-6613-1498","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Mansour A.","family":"Alghamdi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Anatomy, College of Medicine, King Khalid University, Abha 61421, Saudi Arabia"},{"name":"Genomics and Personalized Medicine Unit, College of Medicine, King Khalid University, Abha 61421, Saudi Arabia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-9215-088X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Denise A.","family":"Marston","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Virology, Animal and Plant Health Agency (APHA, Weybridge), Surrey KT15 3NB, UK"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Guanghui","family":"Wu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Virology, Animal and Plant Health Agency (APHA, Weybridge), Surrey KT15 3NB, UK"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-6022-348X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Lorraine M.","family":"McElhinney","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Virology, Animal and Plant Health Agency (APHA, Weybridge), Surrey KT15 3NB, UK"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ian H.","family":"Brown","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Virology, Animal and Plant Health Agency (APHA, Weybridge), Surrey KT15 3NB, UK"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-3243-6154","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Anthony R.","family":"Fooks","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Virology, Animal and Plant Health Agency (APHA, Weybridge), Surrey KT15 3NB, UK"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2020,12,9]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","unstructured":"Henig, R.M.
