Step 4: Saturation is โฌ๏ธ what to do?
Don't PANIC. How low is low? 92-94 % is acceptable. Proning helps i.e lying on ur belly. Continue to monitor sats frequently. Consult a doctor. Get the tests they ask you to. Eg CRP/ D-dimer/ ยฑHRCT chest.

Step 5: SURPRISE ๐คทโโ๏ธ๐คทโโ๏ธ U DONT NEED DOXY/ IVERMECTIN/ FAVIFLU !!
There is enough evidence these medicines DON'T work. They are still in protocols coz ๐ฎ๐ณ isn't exactly a fan of evidence based medicine. The doctors are better at reading medical literature. Let them do that.

Step 7: Vaccination post #COVIDใผ19
Now that you have fought covid, get the vaccine if u haven't already. U need to wait ~4 weeks post recovery to get the #vaccine. Vaccines definitely prevent severe disease & death.
