If you develop a dry cough, do take cough drops and sip liquids to prevent yourself from coughing.
Reasoning: I’ve seen one doctor claim this is helpful because one of the causes of severity is how deep into the respiratory system the virus is able to travel. Apparently lower respiratory infections are more severe because the immune system has a harder time fighting it. Coughing tends to drive the virus deeper into the respiratory system.
