Insurance covers insurable events, some of them may be triggered by a pandemic, and some of those might be excluded. Check your fine print.

* Life insurance is probably going to take a hit. My life insurance doesn't mention pandemic or acts of god. Suicide yes. Pandemic no.

* Auto insurance is probably going to be marginally more profitable as miles driven drop.

* Home/Property isn't likely to be heavily affected.

* Health insurance is going to take a major hit. Probably in the bailout/re-capitalization range.

* Reinsurance is going to be dependent on the specific underwriting that's been done.

* Travel insurance. Ha. This is an extinction level event for them, so it's excluded.
