I will also, as you say, take a wait & see attitude however. The building of quarantine centers would not be irrational in many places. How many actual physical facilities, or even numbers of beds - existing right now - are in the US to handle more than a few affected with any number of such illnesses? I mean no shit, real certified, quarantine facilities.
