The biggest mistake people are doing in covid 19 is panic. People try to suppress slightest of symptoms like fever & cough with reductionist drugs including toxic antibiotics which fights our body physiology & make them at risk of developing severe disease.

For huge majority, covid19 is a self limiting disease unless you tamper with ur body physiology with reductionist drugs & bad diet/lifestyle. Have patience for 5-10 days, disease will be gone without a single paracetamol/antibiotic/antiviral tablet.

For doctors, prescribing a paracetamol is much easier than explaining the self-limiting nature of illness, to have patience, lifestyle modifications etc. So insist your doctor on treating the cause rather than one pill for every symptom. Demand a holistic approach of treatment.

I as a doctor assess patient's attitude & treat accordingly. If pt wants immediate symptom relief & are impatient, i go with easy option of 'a pill for every ill' , but i give more time talking to those who demand a holistic approach.

Stop suppressing the symptoms. Go out in sunlight. Breathe fresh air. Cough out the pathogens. Take rest & hydrate yourself during fever. Consume adequate fruits, vegetables, whole grains & pulses for nutrition. Have patience & stop panicking. This is the best treatment ever.

Fever not only inactivates pathogens, but also have multiple immunomodulatory effects. So please stop popping pills as soon as u record higher temperatures. https://twitter.com/Manojakrishna/status/1387461224539967493
