If you have ever read any books on contagious diseases and airplane travel you will know that once any infectious disease is transported by an infected person it spreads. Google " sneezing or coughing" and find data that shows how fast and far droplets from these actions are dispersed into a confined area.
Even recent movie scenarios have described in gruesome detail how fast and how unprepared we are for a pandemic of any nature. Movie scenario based on scientific data provided by the WHO and CDC.
Preparedness, means being able to isolate ( self quarantine) oneself and family for the duration until disease burns itself out. Food, water, needed MEDS and No person to person contact during the breakout in your area will hopefully prevent your contracting and spreading any disease.
