Worst case scenario is something on the scale of 1918 spanish flu, which is possibly the worst pandemic in recent history despite "only" having a 3 % mortality rate.
Best case scenario at this point is probably along the lines of the 2009 swine flu outbreak, which was still a serious pandemic but with a lower mortality rate.
Either way I'd say prepare your anus, get at least 2 weeks worth of non-perishable food in reserve. This is more to prepare for the inevitable panic buying and economic impacts than the disease itself. If 400 cases can emerge in italy in less than a week then you can bet your ass it can happen to your country as well.
