Highlights from Covid-19 discussion with Dr. V Ramasubramanian, India's leading infectious diseases specialist - A thread

1. First line of defence-

a) Regular home cooked food, nothing exotic
b) 7-8 hours of good sleep
c) Staying positive
d) Mask, wash hands, social distancing 2. Common sense > panic

a) Plasma, HCQ, Zinc, Vit D etc not proven to protect against covid19
b) CT scan not for everyone. Doc will specifically ask if needed. Same with steroids. Currently rampant misuse
c) Drugs like Remdesivir, Tocilizumab required only post hospitalisation
