Symptomatic care: At this time there is no treatment for mild symptoms of COVID-19. However, you can treat the symptoms with Tylenol for pain or fever, fluids , decongestants and nasal sprays for congestion. Also check your temperature daily. And of course quarantine yourself for 14 days

Vit C/D & zinc: There is some evidence that zinc can decrease virus replication so worth taking that, plus vitamin D & possibly C- might minimize chance of more severe disease.
