Of course, I'm not going to treat anything here as the absolute truth, but I'm looking for things I might have missed.

I read the article, but other than keeping food and not touching your face etc. I didn't see much actionable advice for me. I'm not taking any prescription drugs, I don't have any family members close enough that I could treat them and handshakes are uncommon at my office.



Keeping a stock of non-perishable food is always good advice, some means of purifying water (visit your local camping store), a hand crank radio/light. That's about it.

For the rest, we are all essentially about to be victims of math, and the math on any disease with a 14 day or so symptomless incubation period, and high infectivity is uncompromising. It was always going to spread world wide, and there was really nothing anybody was going to be able to do about that.
