About to get real for me.  My dad, who is just shy of being 77, has COVID.  He started feeling poorly yesterday morning, but put off going to the Dr. until yesterday afternoon.  My mom took him to the ER yesterday afternoon/early evening.  They had a positive test last night ( I didn't know they could get the results so fast).  He's been in poor health for years.  He had open heart surgery in 2018 and never really fully recovered.  He's been in and out of the hospital for the last 2-3 years.  

He's been short of breath and borderline COPD for years before that as well.  The last time I saw him he was telling me how fast he gets out of breath.  So far the hospital gave him some antibiotics and sent him home AFAIK, I have not talked to my mom this morning to find out all the details.

If they sent him home, maybe it means he's doing pretty well overall and they don't see a need for hospitalization.

Good luck. Make sure she watches him closely for any change in symptoms, and don't hesitate to go back if anything new pops up. Don't want to wait until it gets "too bad" before intervening further. 

Are you serious that the hospital gave him antibiotics? For a virus? Was there a reason he needed antibiotics?

Hang in there gigem.  Both of my inlaws had it about 6 weeks ago, and they fared pretty well.  80 and 82 yo, and my FIL is pretty obese and has diabetes.  Neither had any of the respiratory issues though, and it seems like those are the worst from a severity/hospitalization standpoint.

Maybe they're worried about a secondary infection that developed from bacteriological sources?  That's about all I can think of.

Yeah, COVID obviously can lead to complications like pneumonia that can be bacterial etc.

Either way I'd ask for a second opinion on what to do from my primary care physician.
