The Chinese government on Thursday released a guideline on home treatment for asymptomatic or mild COVID-19 cases.
According to the guideline, COVID-19 patients who are asymptomatic or exhibit mild symptoms without serious underlying diseases, can be treated at home.
Patients who have stable underlying medical conditions and who do not need hospitalization, may also recover from COVID-19 at home, read the guideline released by the the State Council joint prevention and control mechanism against COVID-19.
Where conditions permit, the home-based patients should live in relatively separate rooms and use their own restrooms, the guideline noted.
