It basically is a bad flu/cold virus so I would think that it would attack the eldery, young and people who already have a imunity deficiency to start with. Normally heathly people seem to be able to get over it.
In Simcoe county they have had 2 cases, treated them and sent them home in quarantine but they are at home and doing really well.
Unfortunately, the media mainly doesnt report on this stuff only on the people that die from it. This is why I think that the media only makes matters worse at times.
