Considering that there hasn't, last I checked, been a single confirmed case yet in my state (North Carolina), I'm not too concerned right this minute. My concern is also tempered by the knowledge that this virus, so far, does not seem to be exceptionally deadly. That said, I'll be keeping my eye out on the news reports as things progress, for sure. Prepare? Well, I'm admittedly a little bit of a "prepper" anyway. Not to an extreme degree, but I stockpile certain supplies, practice some bushcraft / wilderness survival techniques, and read the occasional book/magazine/website on the topic of survival and prepping. So far, not taking any specific extra actions related directly to the coronavirus thing. But I may make it a point to stock up on some over-the-counter medicines... the kind of things that don't cure any disease, but can at least treat some of the symptoms so you can sleep - e.g. Nyquil, Mucinex, etc., as well as disinfectant wipes, and things of that ilk. I can't imagine this getting so bad that I'd be tempted to flee into the wilderness just to try and avoid human contact until it blows over, so I'm not going out and stocking up on trail mix, ammo, snare wire, waterproof matches, Bic lighters, etc., etc., yadda yadda yadda.
