Notes -
FWIW, that has been the approach of the Finnish media. "This is very unusual and a deadly outbreak but there is no reason for concern as human to human transmission is very inefficient and thus risk of any sort of pandemic is very low".
Basically the same as if there was an Ebola outbreak on a cruise ship. That'd be newsworthy and reason for cautioning travelers who may have interacted with people from that ship but otherwise just "stuff happens abroad, evening news as usual".
