Answer 1

I would acquire all the necessary papers from your doctor and hospital for proof of your illness.  I would then go back to the courthouse and present them with, as soon as possible.  Once this is set in motion it will bypass all liability against you.

Answer 2

IDK. They'll probably do nothing. It's not your fault you got sick.

Answer 3

Just provide  a doctor's note. Jury duty sucks!
