Keep regular hygiene practices. Cover toilet seat before using. Close toilet seat cover (with a tissue) before flushing. Wash your hands with soap before you touch your eyes, nose or mouth.
You'll be fine! There's chlorine in the mikvah waters.

Please calm down, there's no need to panic. There is such a small chance of getting this virus, you have way more things to fear than this.
Please carry on with your normal lifestyle and take normal precautions against germs as we should be doing all the time anyway.

Only dont go to the mikvah if you are in quarantine. Otherwise, just use regular hygienic measures.

My dh said that it’s brought down in Gemara that Mikva waters keep one healthy and not the opposite. I think it specifically says that one will not contact diseases from use of Mikva.

I would be concerned that woman who are in quarantine will go to the mikveh anyway because they don't want to wait. I really hope rabbis are advising woman to put off mikveh if they are in quarantine. I guess we just have to daven!

I hope people are responsible and thoughtful of others, but I am not so sure they are. I will be traveling home from Israel shortly. Work currently has a policy that anyone who has traveled internationally is not to come in for 14 days. I intend to sleep (alone ) in the basement, stay keep my distance from my kids, not go to Megillah at Shul, and will likely push off mikvah. (Will ask my rav) I know if too many people who have been quarantined 2-3 days after their trip and after having rejoined society, potentially spreading. It is just not fair to do to others.
