That's obvious. It's more contagious than Ebola but less so than Norovirus. You're discounting that MERS hasn't gone away... it's sitting in reservoir(s) of wild and/or domesticated animals right now, likely on two continents thanks to travel and clusters of human cases in South Korea as well. If that doesn't worry you, then I guess anticipation isn't your strong suit. The point is: hantavirus was a rare disease but was hyped up in North America, MERS is much worse and has the potential to be a minor Ebola again and again.
