I don't like the premise in the title.
The healthcare industry and silicon valley do not plan to profit from the coronavirus crisis, they plan to profit by providing *solutions* to the coronavirus crisis. If tech companies can sell more networking and computer kit because people are working from home or develop tracking technologies which allow extremely efficient contact tracing or MEMS chips which provide a home test for infection at low cost and with results in minutes then they deserve to make quite a bit of money. That kind of beneficial work should be rewarded.
The people 'seeking to profit from the crisis' are the banks and hedge funds who are using it to load people and businesses up with debt and moving from investments into cash ready to buy at the bottom when people get desperate.
