This is not a media invention- check out Italy. They are already triaging their infected and cannot cope with the strain on health care resources.
This isn’t “just the flu”. It has something like a 20 times higher mortality rate across all age groups. If it plays out like it’s feared to, you will know someone who dies of it in this outbreak. And it’s not “in a certain region”. Germany expects 70% of the population will be exposed. Again, see Italy, or the Seattle area.
