If you do have covid, how are you expecting it to be treated?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Might not require tx: Some people are asymptomatic & might not need treatment. Those with mild sxs usually do fine with hydration, rest, Acetaminophen, decongestant and nasal saline irrigation. People who are more ill may require supplemental oxygen, IV hydration and bronchodialators. What meds are needed depends on the symptoms.
