Once the scope of the problem becomes clear most people would try to stay at home. The police/military would be directed to take over distribution of essential goods as the supply chain collapses. From there economic collapse and the government takes over the farms and factories it needs to take care of who is left. Nobody is going to start a revolution. Well there would probably be some riots but running around in a large group of people is how you get infected so that's going to solve itself.

How would talking about Pakistan distract Indians from dying in a pandemic? If that worked national leaders would just threaten their neighbors every time a natural disaster devastated their country.
