The word "poorly" is subjective and could perhaps be accompanied by references, but caution is always good, especially now. And it is certainly true that only time will tell how this virus will work.

If things get very bad locally at least some woodworkers have professional grade industrial respirators on hand. I have a bunch of 3M 1/2 face and two full-face respirators, a supply of both P100 and organic vapor filter cartridges, boxes and packages of disposable masks for shop visitors, nitrile gloves, and tyvec coveralls for shop and farm use. I suspect a lot here have such gear in their shops.
