Infected with covid few days ago

2021-04-16 07:33:47
My father was infected with covid few days ago and is discharged from quarantine center. However on ct-scan his score is 12/25 and  oxygen level of 85. Doctor recommended to get him hospitalised and get remdesivir however no beds are available in my city. Is his condition serious and remdesivir necessary or treatment at home will be enough? Doctor has prescribed fabiflu tablets, vitamin-c, zincovit, hydroxychloroquine, etc.

Hospitalise him immediately. Remdesivir may not work once hypoxic but oxygen supply is needed
