Asking for Mother, Female, 57 years old, Karachi

AOA! my mother tested positive for Corona though she has no symptoms of the disease... Neither any flu, cough or fever nor any loss of smell or taste... My question is what are we required to do now beside isolating her? Do we need to start any kind of medication? Kindly guide... P.S., She is hypertensive and diabetic too...

Salaam

Continue all other medication as such

Should be in a separate room, complete isolation, food outside her room where she can collect it and put it back. Her things like comb, towel, everything should be in her room. Better for her family members if any dealing with your mother for gloves n mask. She herself should wear mask.
Frequent hand washing with soap
She should drink more water , fresh fruit and veg and liquid like soups

If only symptomatic paracetamol but should be a break of atleast 6 hours

If persistent fever, cough or shortness of breath contact doctor

Isolate her. Buy pulse oximetry to keep an eye on her saturation. Also check temperature regularly. Give her surbex Z and cac 1000. Eat healthy food. Give her dry fruits. If her sugar is well controlled then give her one to two ajwa dates daily. It is good for immunity. If sugar not control then don’t give her dates. Continue her medicines for hypertension and diabetes.
