I'm trying to understand the corona severity score which is out of 40. Could you explain what that means? Like, what's considered a normal score for someone with COVID? I'm concerned about what these numbers indicate for a patient's condition.

Question

What can I use instead of Salsol 2.5 mg for a nebulizer? It's nowhere to be found in the market. If anyone can help, I'd appreciate it since my brother really needs it due to his severe bronchitis. Is there any supplier who might have it?
