SOUTH Korea on Monday reported its 16th death in an expanding Mers outbreak, as President Park Geun-Hye called for efforts to shore up the economy against what she called "excessive" public alarm.

Seoul also declared five new patients - bringing the total number of cases, including the deaths, to 150 - as fears grew over the impact of the outbreak on Asia's fourth-largest economy.
