The virus is highly contagious before people show symptoms, unlike ebola where people were the most contagious after it was obvious that they already had it. Even though the death rate is low, healthcare centers/workers can be overwhelmed if enough people are infected fast enough. When medical care is rationed some people are going to be left to fend for themselves.
