I'm expecting Matrix/Riot has some of those like chat, and will develop some more. And there'll be definitely alternatives, which is the beauty of FOSS.

You have to look at the CFR(case fatality rate) and how wide it will be spreading. For flu, case fatality rate is usually <0.1% [1]. As comparison, SARS in 2003 is 15% [2]. This time it's still developing (17 of 444 as of today[3])
