Hi Again Daniel:
What you have written sounds logical, for sure, so far as the practicalities of where to be are concerned, but you might want to also consider whatever benefit you might gain from being back home in the same community as your family and friends. In other words, if you had to choose between New York City or Chicago or Rabbithash, Kansas and Turkey, Turkey probably makes the most sense, but if you have a choice between your home town and Turkey, then it might be different.
I don't know if airports are still operating in Turkey, or if Turkish Airlines is still flying international routes that might enable you to connect with a flight to America (or even fly direct to America on Turkish Airlines or an American carrier) - but my guess is that flights out of Turkey won't be operating for much longer. Here in Tunisia, everything is shut down, the airports are closed.
So, if you have any doubts about staying in Turkey vs. making a dash for home, don't dawdle, because the opportunity to get home will not last for long.
Feel free to send me a private message if you want, I'm stuck in the same situation you are in, the only difference being that I'm in Tunisia.
Michael
