I would like to suggest something helpful

that some of us can do to help out in the coming weeks. Call your local hospital administrators and offer to come and fill in (once tested of course) for things like housekeeping, etc. An extra janitor here or there might take a load off of the rest of a crew that might lose a member or two to quarantine. I know they might be union but maybe they'll take the help. At least we must try to contribute to help the situation. Also if we do experience a major quarantine event like Italy please think about your older neighbors and tell them you will call them to check and see how it's going. Especially if someone seems to be alone without family. Whatever we are going to face let's do it with love and trying to help each other.

Another one I've seen is a suggestion to offer to assistance to schools (if you have a child enrolled) to wipe down surfaces daily.
