How to keep FMV out of the area

I live in NW Mississippi and I am not aware of fig mosaic virus (FMV) being a problem here. Many fig trees are in the area, mostly Celeste, Eastern Brown Turkeys, and Magnolias. I would like to purchase another one or two varieties that orginated in California, like Kadota or Excell, but I read these can be carriers of the virus. I don't want to risk exposing all the figs in the area to the virus, since they may not have any immunity. What should I do?
