Overstaying my OPT grace period

Due to COVID-19 I'm unable to get a flight back home. All flights including local and international have been halted in my home country. Therefore I'm overstaying beyond my grace period. What options do I have? And how will this affect my return back to the US on a different visa (e.g. J-1)? I called USCIS and they told me to apply for the i-539 extension. But as far as I know, it only applies to students overstaying after graduation and not OPT.
