For people like you (who think ahead and prep), your chances of contacting a virus like this are very tiny. Worst-case scenario, it's not a fast-spreading disease and you know about it in time to stay home.
More likely scenario, the real problem here is panic and people's reaction. And most likely you'll have some basics so you don't have to go to the grocery store and gas station when everyone else is.
If I really have to bug in, we probably have enough of the basics such as food, water, firewood, etc.
What I would be concerned about is if we have all bills paid and/or enough necessary accessible methods to pay necessary bills such as mortgage and electricity if a bug-in gets extended.
In the interest of being able to STAY home, the most important prep is to be healthy. We are scheduling checkups we have otherwise postponed. I'm also getting extra work gloves, good shoes, etc to minimize the chance of injury.
