So, Covid19, what can we do?

"Of course" there's the (semi-)obvious ... work to not spread it.

But, more specifically?
I'd been thinking about, and what about BOINC and (potentially)
related projects, e.g. Folding at home
e.g.:

So, yes, compute power may help on stuff related to
biology, epidemiology, and related issues, etc.

Allowing/supporting work-from-home/remote, telepresence, ...

Perhaps (/likely) more to do, but those may be some areas to be aware
of and help out on.
