I was also wondering about that. I had a pretty bad cold the second week of February after going to a party where some of my friends, who travel abroad extensively, were sick. It was different than the usual colds I get -- normally I just have a really bad sore throat and muscle pain for a week and a half, this time it was a dry cough and fever, but I honestly didn't feel all that bad. Obviously this matches the symptoms of Coronavirus, but also matches the symptoms of 99 billion other types of cold and flu.

I would like to think that I already got it, but in the end it probably doesn't matter. It is pretty unlikely that I am going to die from it, but it is pretty likely that we go into a recession and people pay less for my labor, stocks will be worth less, and food will be in short supply... so I think in the end, getting sick is just an annoyance (to me personally, I know people are dying) and the real problems come from everyone else getting sick. So either way, I'm sure it doesn't matter.
