That may be true, but might not be as big of a deal as you are thinking. For instance, our hospital system converted one of our smaller outlying hospital buildings to a COVID treatment center (thankfully empty at the moment) by moving the patients there to another facility. They did this so we can keep COVID patients geographically isolated from other patients and dedicate staff etc to minimize/eliminate cross-contamination. I doubt our system is the only one to think of that.

Trump signs coronavirus relief legislation into law - CNNPolitics
President Donald Trump on Wednesday signed into law a coronavirus relief package that includes provisions for free testing for Covid-19 and paid emergency leave.
The Senate had earlier Wednesday approved the House-passed bill. The move allowed the upper chamber to devote its full attention to passing the next relief package in response to the coronavirus crisis.
Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell and other Senate Republicans had been critical of the House-passed legislation, but emphasized that it is urgent to get relief to the American people amid the coronavirus crisis.
McConnell reiterated Wednesday that he would not adjourn the Senate until it passed what lawmakers are describing as a "phase three" economic stimulus package in response to the coronavirus outbreak.
After an initial vote last week, the House approved a set of changes to the legislation on Monday, clearing the path for the Senate to take it up this week.
The House legislation was negotiated between House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and the Trump administration and the President expressed support for it.
To aid in social distancing, McConnell announced ahead of the final vote that senators would take precautions during the vote.
"What we'll do is have a 30-minute roll call vote. We want to avoid congregating here in the well," he said. "I would encourage our colleagues to come in and vote and depart the chamber so we don't have gaggles of conversation here on the floor. That's particularly important for our staff here and the front of the chamber, so I would encourage everyone to take full advantage of a full 30-minute roll call vote. Come in and vote, and leave."

How about Aleve?

Dunno.
Just know ibuprofen currently QUESTIONABLE should not self medicate covid-19 with. Since Aleve is in a similar class, lean towards Tylenol/acetaminophen until better data available.

All are still fine for other things. Ibuprofen specifically with covid-19 QUESTIONABLE right now.


Edit with better terminology because casual doc speak coming across too strongly.
