This might sound tasteless but...

What's the probable impact of such pandemy on the stock market?

Any low hanging fruit to invest on? Any category of assets to stay away from?

Travel stocks and travel related stocks down, health related stocks up would be my first guess.

Not health insurance though, they could be in for massive liabilities should a lot of people start contracting.

When things are uncertain, $VIX volatility index is a good bet. Maybe look into the most popular sellers/manufacturers of those surgical face masks, I'm sure those guys are making a killing right now.
