1. Steroids are important at certain stages of covid infection. If properly given, it does not cause bad effects. Black fungus can come from damp/wet/moist/humid conditions mostly.. so better to avoid such places.. or from an already infected person (by sneezing/coughing). Better to wear mask and practice social distancing for this problem also.. 2. Complete blood count is a basic assessment of a person's immunity.
Health Tips
wear clean dry mask. avoid masks which are soiled/dirty.
