Stock up on food, bottled water, medication. If there is a outbreak in the UK then the best you can do is stay at home.

Before this occurs though everyone should be questioning their government on what plans they have to keep this virus out of the UK. Again i ask why are flights still being allowed in and out of Mexico and then onto the UK? If you want this thing to spread thats the best way to go about it.

Unfortunately we live in a world where movement between countries is easy. Stopping movement between the UK and Mexico would not halt the spread of this disease as it has already made its way to other countries. For example , Mexico is a favorite destination for USA students and many have been there for the recent Spring break. There have already been confirmed cases in New York which can possibly be linked to students that have been holidaying in Cancun. Do you suggest we stop flights to and from the USA as well?
