Furloughs with a large amount of potential sidelined pilots is unlikely. We could start dropping (from the schedule) like flies in a few weeks. Even if we successfully flatten the curve, we will take a huge hit in pilot availability due to contact with know positives. Cargo pilots, truck drivers, etc may be able to work after contact, we won't. Bidding a reserve line expecting to finish your kitchen remodel may not work out like planned. For us WB types used to covering a known departure window, we could have a rude awaking with DH legs to cover a layover sick call.

I claim trademark rights to the term "Corona Thunder". It could make Rolling Thunder look like amateur hour.
