I see lots of advice about stocking up on basic supplies and being ready to stay home/indoors for a few weeks up to a couple of months. It sounds like great advice and my family is already building our stores up some from the typical stock. Does anyone have any advice though for those of us that have to leave the house? My job is literally travel. I don’t have much choice other than a leave of absence or exhausting sick leave etc. My biggest concern is bringing this thing home to my little one.

Right. And another concern I don't see addressed anywhere: what happens if one member of your family gets it? What preparation do you need to isolate/quarantine that person while still trying to take care of them? Do you just settle for the fact you're all infected at that point?

  Take what precautions you can in the hopes that you delay getting it until the other person is doing a bit better?

  I was wondering about this too. Do you lock your wife in the guest room with a multi-stage plastic tarp to deliver food?

    Do it know. She may already be sick. Don't wait for the symptoms.

If we get to the point that the government recommends self-quarantine, your job will probably be put on pause.
