How do I respond to a virus outbreak in Prison Architect?

Prison Architect 1.0 includes random events, one of which is a virus outbreak. The doctor reports that you should quarantine the sick prisoners to prevent it from spreading, and the tasks list shows a counter for the number of infected prisoners–3 in my case.
I'm unclear on how to respond to the event and treat the prisoners. I put the prison into Bangup mode for two consecutive days and healed the one or two injured prisoners I had. At some point the count of infected prisoners dropped from 3 to 2, but it wasn't clear what caused this.
How does the virus event work, and what's the course of treatment? Does it require medical staff (doctors or paramedics) to cure the virus–or is it a case of "keep them penned up until they're healthy, or burn the place down?"
Update: Has update-1 fixed / improved the virus event?
Best Answer
Have all of your prisoners go to eat and put your paramedics in the canteen while they’re eating to heal them all
