I worked Flight ABC out of ZZZZ; and operated out of a remote gate. The flight was full; and I was forced to ride on a packed bus to the plane from the gate crammed in with all of the passengers on my flight. This made me extremely uncomfortable given that we are putting ourselves at a much higher risk of being exposed [to the Coronavirus] during a 4 day trip rather than staying at home.  Crew should be given dedicated transport to airplanes at remote gates separated from passengers.
First Officer reported concerns with having to ride a bus full of crammed passengers from the gate to the aircraft increasing their risk of being exposed to Coronavirus.
