Primary Outcome Measures :

  1. Prevention of COVID-19 symptoms as recorded in a daily diary [ Time Frame: 24 weeks ]

    Any symptoms of COVID-19 will be recorded in a daily diary. Symptoms (including fever measured in degrees Fahrenheit, dry cough, productive cough, difficulty speaking, wheezing, dry mouth, headache, chest tightness, difficulty with exertion, shortness of breath, sore throat, malaise, and diarrhea) will be rated as not present, mild, moderate, or severe.


  2. Safety as determined by presence or absence of Adverse Events and Serious Adverse Events [ Time Frame: 24 weeks ]

    To assess the presence or absence of side effects (graded 1-5), and whether they are tolerable (grade 1-2). AE and SAE will be recorded.
