We'll be fine. It's still important to remain cautious. Don't go near large crowds if you don't have to. Wash your hands. Take precautions, especially if you live near/visit older family members or plan to during this pandemic.
Otherwise, I'm confident US healthcare will do fine. Just the other day, I saw this paper on Hacker News discussing the use of ACE2 inhibitors already on the market, among others. The research was conducted by Dr. Kruse from John Hopkins, and one of his subordinates was looking to contact the treatment accelerator program Gates was putting together. Since they're already-approved drugs, this means that we should be able to provide therapy before vaccines will be ready next year.
Yep ^

Still, be cautious. Treatments are coming!
