The suggestions in this guide do not replace medical advice from your doctor.  If you experience symptoms such as breathlessness, high fever, severe cough, or a drop in oxygen saturation, as measured by finger pulse oximeter, you should seek medical attention.

This guide will help you treat Covid illness effectively at home.  Covid-19 should be treated early, with a combination of therapies, and treated aggressively to avoid more serious consequences of the illness.  It will help to have a thermometer and finger pulse oximeter on hand to monitor temperature and oxygen saturation respectively.  For more details refer to the resources at the end of this checklist.
