I was watching a bunch of Korean movies and there's this one movie called "Flu". An Ebola type plague, this was during the bird flu scare, breaks out. It comes down to the Koreans trying to contain the flu and the Americans going to nuke Korea to contain it. lol
Not a very good movie..

The zombie apocalypse is here!
I wouldn't worry. Popular media loves to blow these things out of proportion.

If I remember correctly from reading about it in the ME, it's not a huge risk. Will probably be fine once they raise awareness.

I saw "Mers" and immediately thought elves from the Elder Scrolls series.

If it's like ebola and it's in South Korea I have no doubt that they will be able to contain it. I'll freak out when the Koreans declare an emergency.. Also, wait for the news showing you people in SK with surgical masks on like it's not normal there.
Nah it was in China, in the movie they went to Korea because of the zombie memos the american soldiers there had been sending. Originally Posted by Crissi

If this virus originated in the middle east then Europe is doomed with all the illegal immigrants coming over from the region.

Thailand has confirmed its first known case of the deadly Mers virus, after a man who arrived from a Middle Eastern country was treated for a heart condition.
Public Health Minister Rajata Rajatanavin said on Thursday that two laboratories had confirmed the results.
He said the 75-year-old man has been quarantined at Bamrasbaradura Infectious Diseases Institute in Nonthaburi province.
Mr Rajata said the patient was travelling with three family members who are being monitored at the facility.
The Public Health Ministry said 59 others are being monitored. They were in contact with the man, including nearby passengers on the airplane and a taxi driver.
