Various posts on social media, ranging from home remedies to Ayurveda and Unani medication, are being spread with no effective evidence or verification from a credible source. Decrease in SpO2 level is a major point of concern for many victims and many remedies are spread claiming to help restore the oxygen level in people who are COVID-19 positive. CLAIM One such claim going viral on social media is the ‘lemon therapy’ which says that pouring pure lemon juice into the nose of a COVID-19 positive patient can improve the oxygen saturation level in the body and can also protect the patient against the novel coronavirus.
