Two months of this is going to be the beginning of the next depression.

It's going to be a recession, certainly. In the Great Depression there weren't significant stimulus measures taken though, until the stimulus provided by the war. Governments have already made it clear they're going to throw a lot of resources at the economic side of this, so I expect a couple months would be really bad, and some businesses will definitely fail (some already have), but not Depression level bad.
