Interview when sick?

I got invited to several PE interviews but am very sick… What’s the best way to manage this? Obviously doesn’t seem like a good move to go to an interview while sick - do I ask for virtual option or if I can come in with a mask?

I coughed through an entire interview (over Zoom) and still got invited to the AC.
