The only people who lose money are selling in a panic (or buying during a rut). CV has been with us (in the western world) for months now, and people haven't been dropping dead. So unless you believe 2% of the world will die then sure, buy your bunker and your guns and ammo and wait it out. If you are a bit more level headed, you can't go wrong with buying and holding now (and when times were/are/will be) good again.

Exactly right. After all humans co-exist with much more serious illnesses in many parts of the world. Somehow people adapt to circumstances and life goes on.
