<s>[INST] HOW IS COVID-19 TREATED? [/INST] 
Treatment is supportive (e.g. provide oxygen for patients with shortness of breath or treatment for fever). Antibiotics do not treat viral infections. However, antibiotics may be required if a bacterial secondary infection develops. There are several studies in progress using different medications that may have some effectiveness against the virus. Remdesivir is a repurposed antiviral drug. Data are conflicting as to the clinical benefits of this agent and more data are awaited. Source: NICD.
