Covid positive query

2020-09-18 12:57:44
I need help to understand what is the process in case a senior citizen is tested positive. Is it mandatory to get admitted in hospital even if there are no symptoms. He had throat infection and continuous hiccups since 10 days and hence doctor suggested for Covid test. Result is positive. Is self isolation better or directly getting admitted to hospital better. Kindly reply.

If there are any alarming signs even a mild cough please consult with your nearby physician and get admitted or at least make a visit so that you can be assured that he is safe
