I'm not worried about it at all. I still think my highest risk of death is getting into my car, or onto my bike, each day. The media enjoy stirring up the pot and selling panic, but in reality I think my life is put at risk in other, more realistic ways, many times over before some obscure malady from a foreign country ever will.
There will always be some sickness or malady to worry about if you look hard enough. In this case, I consider it to be widespread hypochondria. If it develops to something more than that, so be it, but I still think the odds of my personally being affected are minimal to non-existent. Generally, people don't take much action to prevent themselves from other, more realistic maladies, but suddenly there is this expectation that people should dramatically alter their lives solely because a more trendy and contemporary virus has come along. It all seems very silly and irrelevant to me.
