“Remember for this um the loss of smell and taste. And also the gastrointestinal symptoms are quite predominant in COVID.”
“Please do not listen to it. There are people reporting to be medical professionals. It is not recommended practice - and it may even delay you getting help.”

“We now know that actually in the long term if you're using your blue inhaler excessively it could increase your chances of having more attack, maybe even ended up in hospital or even worse”
