I spoke to my sister in law who is an emergency room RN and my brother in law that's an ER surgeon, they work in different parts of the country with different political views. They both said it's being completely blown out of proportion, it's just another flu outbreak that will sicken many people and be fatal to the weak and elderly just like other viruses.
I am taking a few extra precautions the same as I do during any other flu season.

Your Y2K comment is a false meme..!
The reason Y2K did not become an emergency is because Software Developers and Program Managers knew about the issue!
Plans were already developed how to deal with it.
The whole process was coordinated by each of the Agency Leaders.
They petitioned the government to make them aware of it.
Congress got funding, Senate approved, signed into law by President Clinton.
US coordinated with every country in the world who updated their systems.
Plans were smoothly implemented and avoided a world wide crisis.
