Well, It is especially notable since it was created while S.Korea gov
refused to publish the name of medical facilities. Then someone got the map
data from OSM and analyzed the known facts (somehow), then created the page
with the map.

ps. I see my contribution, too! (I created a node which is now identified
as MERS-infected.)
