   A plague knocked everyone unconscious.  Must have hit really quickly.
Either it's non-fatal and everyone else will be waking up soon, or I'm
one of the lucky few who generated immunity.

   1.  Get comfortable clothing.
   2.  Look for news broadcasts, an internet connection, newpapers --
       anything that might contain an explanation of the last day or two.
   3.  Wait a day or two people to wake up.  (If they don't wake up, they
       should be dying off by then, from dehydration if nothing else.)
   4.  If nobody else wakes up, go into 'zombie apocalypse' mode and
       start scavenging for food, weapons, and radio transceivers.

   None.  If it's a plague then I should be immune now.  If it's some
kind of alien weapon then it's out of my league.  And besides, I'm not
sure
I'd want to be the last man on Earth.  Going to sleep and not waking up
might be a mercy.
