Summary

The Investigators want to examine patients infected with SARS-CoV-2 for the phenomenon "Silent Hypoxia", which is clinically significant hypoxia without corresponding degree of dyspnea. The patient population is infected individuals without any serious symptoms and is at home. The participants will be equipped with a pulse oximeter and a PEF-measurement device. Four times daily the participants will register saturation, degree of dyspnea and PEF. If the participants experience desaturation or increasing dyspnea, physiotherapy is to be performed, and if that doesn't relieve symptoms or increase oxygen saturation, the hospital should be contacted for admission. The first part of this study is a feasibility study, and if found feasible, the investigators will expand the study to more participants.
