Dr. Holly Day, General and Hospital Medicine, UT Health San Antonio, speaks about supportive care for COVID-19 patients, as well as the use of hydroxychloroquine, to help patients not in the ICU improve.
“The big part of helping someone get better is what’s called supportive care,” Day said. “And, that is basically making sure that they’re able to keep breathing, they’re able to keep eating and drinking and stay hydrated for as long as it takes the body to fight off the infection.”
