Hopefully our weather will kill it it dont spread wildly. Loses its power due to early effective containment/treatment.
Found out looking in who apparantly respritory illness can be caught from animals. In 2009 Who had outbreak of hendra virus which can cause respritory or neurologic complications. Though the 3 infected fully recovered thankfully.

a 40% death rate when it is new and only a few cases is meaningless due to the fact treatments have not been tested.Remember it has not started here in the west it started elsewhere where treatment may not be as easy to attain. Now if it was 40% still when cases are in the tens of thousands then I would be a little frightened
