#AskTheExpert Good morning Doctor. My BRother in law is having covid symptoms. We hve got the test done and he has isolated himself.. but there are chances that we might also be positive. Having that as a posibility, are there any multivitamins or zinc drops tht i should start for my son who is 6 months old. Also what are the chances that he might have got infected with the virus and what is the severity of corona in babies? M very worried as noone is giving a clear picture when it comes to corona and babies
