Unfortunately, with all do respect, you do not know the current plight of Indian and South Asian population.
Many of them work in the Persian Gulf in labor camps. ANd I do not mean a couple thousand. In Qatar, there is 10 million plus population, the population is overwhelmingly male, and the Qataris are less one million of that population. Male South Asian laborers are the largest demographic group in the whole country. This is an increasingly common pattern in the region.
There is little or no medical care, and despite first class medical care for expats, it would be way too late for the unprepared MoH units, which receive basically minimal training from the CDC to react in time. This area, specifically Qatar, has become a major transportation for hub internationa flights, hence the real underlying panic for MERS (Middle East Respiratory Syndrome).
If South Asia (India, Pakistan, Nepal, etc.) were hit in any real way, the world would be fucked ... probably in the course of weeks.
