– The death toll from the deadly Middle Eastern virus known as coronavirus rose to 447 on Sunday, making it the deadliest outbreak of the disease in modern history, the BBC reports. The latest death was in Saudi Arabia, where health officials say a 12-year-old boy who died earlier this month became the kingdom’s first child to die from the disease. More than a dozen other children have died in Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates from the disease, which causes vomiting and convulsions and has killed at least 140 in the Middle East. The outbreak has spread to at least four countries, including the US, where more than 58,000 cases have been reported in the past two months. In an interview with Fox News Sunday, President Trump said he is no longer a transmission risk from the disease, Reuters reports.
