I wonder how much filth is on the average banknote vs the buttons on a card payment machine. The cash could've been laying dormant for days. A card machine in a supermarket will have been fingered by people who've been fingering rancid rent boys ten minutes before. I'll be using a pencil from now on if it goes above the contactless limit.
As for the original theme of the thread, no one gives a shit. Other than hopeful Bitcoin fans of course.

Not to argue the use of bitcoin, say a solution to solve to prevent being infected by covid-19 using cash, but more people keep using online banking already through their mobile banking apps and some digital wallets (Gcash, Paymaya) here in my place rather than bitcoin itself, but of course, there are some, like me using it, especially paying bills, online shopping, etc.
Agree, been using my bitcoin and bank apps for transactions of my bills to save me time and the hassle of going on line. I don't want to say this, but maybe many people are too imaginative on how to used crypto specially when we thought that it can spread out thru paper bills. And there are a lot of people around the world who don't have a clue to what crypto is, so I doubt that we will suddenly see a surge of usage just because of the covid-19 pandemic.

Cash is such an insignificant vector for the spread of this (or any other) disease, there's no need to panic about it, just was your hands after handling cash and you will be fine. We won't see any big increase in BTC adoption because of the virus, people will use credit cards more if they'll have to, but otherwise everyone will keep using cash. And you overestimate how much regular people care about this virus, most people in the world don't even wash their hands as much as they should.

This can help to prevent other people from using Paper Money (Fiat Currency) Especially when paying their bills and you have to leave the house to fall in line with those offices to pay.
1. Water bills
2. Electricity bills
3. Internet bills
And it is risky to our safety because we are exposed to many people where we are at high risk of contracting the virus. So hopefully the government has taken a step towards this.
~ Actually here in my country this is happening, We can now pay bills with digital money and crypto currency.

Yes then the money won't be the problem anymore 
, people should know that the money is able to spread more diseases and viruses compared to a crowded bus or taxi .
People won't just leave money , it is really essential so doing the online transactions might be the key to protecting yourself and your family members for the time being.
Bitcoins can be very useful in the international transactions .

we can see data in real-time from this site about Covid-19 Virus (Corona) which is currently serving almost all over the world
source: https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/
many effects that occur due to the spread of the virus that until now there has been no cure (report from WHO), not only deaths and economic changes have occurred due to the spread of this virus, but also many others;
1. Kab'ah empty
this is one of the extraordinary effects because we know that the Kab'ah is never empty by worshipers who want to worship (even during renovations).
2. Prices of spare parts (electronic devices & vehicles) are rising
China is famous for its counterfeit goods (KW) and cheapness, as a result of the spread of this virus many countries have shut down (export-import) to or from China.
3. the appearance of strange greetings "Leg Shaking"
many people and even state officials are afraid to touch hands (shaking hands) so they do "Leg Shaking" to still be able to maintain intimacy and avoid contracting the coronavirus.
there are many more effects that occur and I can not explain one by one here (because it must be too long)
if everyone is afraid to touch each other, are they not afraid of fiat money when they trade because the virus can spread through paper money (drooling or sweating)??
This is the time we really use Bitcoin and CryptoCurrency as a means of exchange because we are physically not in contact with other people so we avoid contracting the Covid-19 virus (Corona).
I hope the governments of countries around the world can think about this and even campaign it in their respective countries (doing transactions with digital money, cryptocurrency and not with paper money)
