Or you know, the reason we've never had a serious outbreak is because of our first world infrastructure and constant overreaction to threats. Kind of like how if a tornado warning is issued, and you hide in the basement, and there's no tornado, that's no reason to stop listening to tornado warnings.

EDIT

Really doe there's not liable to be a serious outbreak here because it spreads by blood/fluid and our infrastructure for dealing with that is pretty hardcore top tier.
