Objective: The present study has investigated the knowledge, attitudes, and practices regarding the transfer of MERS-CoV among the pilgrims coming to perform Hajj from Algeria. Methods: A correlational approach was employed by the study by recruiting 845 individuals to assess their knowledge, attitude, and practices about MERS-CoV. A questionnaire was distributed for collecting relevant information from the Algerian hajj pilgrims and the results obtained through the questionnaire were tabulated and analyzed statistically using Statistical Package of Social Sciences (SPSS) version 23. Results: The results have shown that knowledge among the Algerian pilgrims about MERS-CoV was weak (73.6%) and their attitude towards getting awareness about MERS-CoV was positive (71.4%). There was significant difference between years of education and knowledge about MERS-CoV (p-value = 0.001), and years of education and practices to minimize the spread of MERS-CoV among the pilgrims (p-value = 0.001). Conclusion: Therefore, the study concluded that knowledge, attitude, and practices about MERS-CoV was satisfactory among the Algerian hajj pilgrims. Keywords: Knowledge, Attitudes, Practices, MERS-CoV, Hajj Pilgrims.
