Summary

[edit]
Description Antibiotics work only against bacteria, not viruses. COVID-19 is caused by a virus, and therefore antibiotics should not be used for prevention or treatment. However, if you are hospitalized for COVID-19, you may receive antibiotics because bacterial co-infection is possible. Originally published on the World Health Organization, Emergency, Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic site under the Mythbusters section.
