How would the situation have played out in the west? The symptoms are flu-like. Would the situation have been contained on the theory that people will self-diagnose after watching the evening news or hearing about it over Facebook?
Also, if any situation explodes, would the west be as capable in quarantining a huge urban population or building a quick hospital?
Would emergency aid be tossed around like a political game?
