Default Potential effects of COVID-19 on people with MG
Looking for links to anything I can read on COVID-19 and effects it may have on people with Myasthenia Gravis. I'm extremely concerned as I'm a 58 year old male who may face awful consequences if I contract COVID-19. I've only found 1 sentence from CDC site that essentially says any with autoimmune diseases may be more susceptible to COVID-19 and the effects may be more severe.

I'm not looking to alarm people like myself who have this disease but I want to educate myself as much as possible. I was looking forward to the presentation on COVID-19 and MG scheduled for 18 March and then it was cancelled. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
