May I play as Ireland, seeing as the virus has not progressed too far.
-Play it honest with the public, make people aware of the dangers of a possible epidemic. This will make the following tasks much easier:
-Prevent any travel to and from China and surrounding countries.
-Attempt to obtain sample of virus. If by purchase from another country, or gathering directly from china.
-If previous task is successful, build a laboratory on a un-inhabited island and begin tests on a vaccine.
Public will be made aware of this establishment, no-one who has been on the island can return to Ireland.
-Stockpile fuels and raw materials. Ensure Ireland can maintain it's own mining, if lacking oil rigs in the north sea, purchase one. Also make sure we have a refinery. (An attack on Taiwan could cause ww3, we need to make sure we can provide our own resources to maintain a strong military force.)
-Begin work on converting hospitals to deal with epidemics. This mainly consists of creating a quarantine station to replace the entrance, to provide screening of anyone who wants to enter, so to prevent people with the virus entering the hospital wrongly. Hospitals will also be cut in half, one zone being clean for non-infections, the other for infections. Prevent travel between these zones without testing for an infection.
Ensure that the quarantine station is the only way to enter the hospitals.
-Bring back national service, station camps for training throughout the country, to provide better security.
-Advertise the dangers of bad hygiene, place handwash dispensers throughout high traffic areas (The ones where you pass your hand through a sensor to dispense).
To all European countries, Ireland wishes to share all knowledge and research with you, on the condition you share all with us.
