#Remdesivir is to be given not to everyone who tests positive.

Remdesivir isn't a 'Ram-ban', it only decreases viral load in people who need it.

Today we have enough oxygen if we try to use it judiciously. We don't want to waste oxygen.

Do not use oxygen as a “security blanket”. Waste of oxygen will only lead to depriving someone who needs it.

Following #COVID appropriate behavior is the first line of defence and the most effective way to prevent the virus from spreading.

Don't rush to the hospitals, just because you've tested positive.

If you have any symptom like body ache, fever, cold, cough, indigestion, vomiting- I have one important message- get yourself tested for #COVID19. It is the most important thing.

If your oxygen saturation is above 94% then there is no problem. But if it is falling after exercise, then, you need to call a doctor. It's important you get the right treatment at the right time.
