Be careful : Asthma is a comorbidity that puts you at added risk with Covid so please protect yourself, shelter in place until the pandemic is over, and if you must go into public areas wear a mask.

How controlled ?: How controlled is your asthma? Poorly controlled asthma or other chronic pulmonary conditions can increase risk of developing more severe COVID 19 symptoms. Wear a mask & work with your doctor to keep your asthma under good control.
