FACTS Stop the Rumors Protect yourself and family.

Covid 19 preperation

What You Need to Know

  • If you test positive for COVID-19 and are more likely to get very  sick, treatments are available that can reduce your chances of  hospitalization and death.
  • Don’t delay: Treatment must be started within days after you first develop symptoms to be effective.
  • Other medications can help reduce symptoms and help you manage your illness.

Types of Treatments

The FDA has authorized certain antiviral medications and monoclonal  antibodies to treat mild to moderate COVID-19 in people who are more  likely to get very sick.

  • Antiviral treatments target specific parts of the virus to stop it from multiplying in the body, helping to prevent severe illness and death.
  • Monoclonal antibodies help the immune system recognize and respond more effectively to the virus.

Managing COVID-19 symptoms

Most people with COVID-19 have mild illness and can recover at home. You can treat symptoms with over-the-counter medicines, such as acetaminophen (Tylenol) or ibuprofen (Motrin, Advil), to help you feel better.

COVID-19 vaccines

COVID-19 vaccines available in the United States effectively protect  people from getting seriously ill, being hospitalized, and even  dying—especially people who are boosted. As with vaccines for other  diseases, you are protected best when you stay up to date. CDC recommends that everyone who is eligible stay up to date on their COVID-19 vaccines.

Preventive medications

The FDA has issued an emergency use authorization for tixagevimab plus cilgavimab (EVUSHELDTM), a medicine that can help protect you from getting COVID-19. EVUSHELDTM contains  two different antibodies and is given as two separate consecutive  intramuscular (IM) injections at a doctor’s office or healthcare  facility before you are exposed or test positive for COVID-19. If you  are moderately or severely immunocompromised, or severely allergic to  COVID-19 vaccines, you may be eligible for EVUSHELDTM  every 6 months. EVUSHELDTM  may offer less protection against certain strains of the Omicron variant. It is important that even if you receive EVUSHELDTM  you take multiple prevention measures.  Additionally, you should undergo testing and seek medical attention if  you develop symptoms of COVID-19, and start treatment for COVID-19 as  appropriate. Talk to your healthcare provider to determine if EVUSHELDTM  is right for you.
