It did occur to me that quarantine plus one case in the house would mean about 4 weeks down time. Might be time to lay in a small stash of non-perishables.
Also: as much as I sympathize with the people on the quarantined cruise ships, the epidemiologists must be, on some level, squealing with excitement… that’s probably as close as you’ll ever get to a controlled experimental environment. Statistically significant population size, controlled contact, fairly traceable patterns of behaviour, known ventilation systems…
