This does not appear to be Spanish Influenza like, and generally people are healthier than in 1918. It may become a big issue when it gets into 3rd World countries where the population is not always so healthy, and indeed where health care can be more problematic but it was ever thus. The idea of just pulling up the draw bridge no longer works, and indeed it is doubtful that it ever did when you look at the various other issues we have had like Plague. You just carry on and look after yourself as well as possible.
