These days governments worldwide are quicker to hit the panic button then in previous years. They are danmed if they do and danmed if they dont.

Yes Stevem, the authorities job is not easy and I am sure they do their best, but I am afraid that, if there is an alert every 3 months, and I hope always false alerts, tourists will not come back and residents will feel really bad in their daily life.
This is a new system, that must be improved, but right now I understand they want to be more prudent than the reason wants.
