Fluctuation of Spo2 may occur a few times. Although the patient's reports are not suggestive of severe infection, plus a complete dose of Remdesevir along with Steroids, would have reduced the inflammation.
I would suggest you wait for 1-2 days more and observe before getting discharged. Also monitor her Spo2 levels.
