Covid in Asthmatic Elderly person

My in laws are in their 80s and have chronic asthma. They are under medication ie. Medicines and nebulisation. They got their Covid vaccine second dose on 19th April and started getting fever from 20th April. It was suspected Covid as my husband got positive on 20th Apr as well. We didn't get our parents tested for Covid as home sample collection was not available and moreover they are too weak to go for tests. They are experiencing a lot of weakness and their Spo2 levels ranges from 83-90.  Fever ranges from 99-100 degrees on and off in a day. We are giving PCM for fever and Vitamins like C and Zinc. They don't complain of any shortness of breath but only weakness. Due to which they sleep all day. It has been ten days now..we are worried if we should take them to a hospital or keep an oxygen cylinder handy ..plz advice. Since my husband's isolation is going to over...so we are in a position to take them to a doctor now.. please advise.

Breathlessness

Hi doctor, From last 1 week, I am feeling breathless. When it started, that time i had to take deep breathe after 2-3 hours but slowly slowly i am getting more breathless. There is no other symptom. This problem is happening when I am in the closed space like house. As I have to take deep breathe every 6-7  minutes now, i have tight feeling in chest also. I am able to do all other activities normally. No dizziness, no lethargy. This abnormal way of breathing is making me feel uneasy. Recently I visited GP, he checked my BP and oxygen level. All seem okay. What should be my next step?
