A second person has died from a new respiratory illness similar to the Sars virus, according to the World Health Organization.
The WHO said three fresh cases had also been reported bringing the total to six.
All are linked to either Saudi Arabia or Qatar. However, one man has been transferred to the UK for treatment.
Doctors say the virus does not appear to readily spread from person to person.
Both reported deaths were in Saudi Arabia.
