It's a medical emergency. Her symptoms are indicative of Covid19. And SpO2 less than 90% puts her under severe category. Also, there isn't any medicine to improve her oxygen level.
Next Steps
She needs urgent hospitalisation
Health Tips
Take proper precautions for whoever came in contact with the patient.

Yes! It's an emergency, the patient might need high oxygen/non invasive ventilation.. pls admit her in ICU. Saturation below 85 is something serious..
