Did Govt of Karnataka say that asymptomatic Covid patients can be isolated at home itself?
I am not in favour, especially considering the population density of Bangalore but if you are positive & GOK says you are in home isolation please follow these instructions.

1) Drink lots of water, avoid alcohol completely. Urine colour should be pale straw or lighter to ensure you are taking adequate water
2) Lots of rest, although asymptomatic remember your body is fighting a virus & needs lots of rest. Quit working or doing anything and rest.

If a asymptomatic Corona positive person is under home isolation, he needs to stay in separate room alone. It is also important that his clothes are cleaned separately & not mixed with rest. He/she needs to change clothes at least twice/day & they need to be washed in warm water.
Toilet used by a Corona positive patients must be disinfected daily as carona virus is shed in feces too & feco-oral route of contamination is possible especially among family members.
This becomes very important in home isolation. Cooking for common consumption is a strict no

If you are Corona positive & under home isolation it is important to have a pulse oximeter at home. Finger oximeters are available at less than Rs 2000/- online do keep checking yourself at least 4 times a day.
If your Saturation drops less than 92% remember to call your doctor
