Observational data suggests HC and AZ may reduce the viral load. In this study we will randomise ambulatory patients with Covid 19 (confirmed by PCR in combination with clinical symptoms) to receive HC/AZ or HC/placebo or placebo for 7 days. On days 2-14, participants will be reviewed by a member of the research team and samples will be obtained for viral load, an ECG recorded and physical examination performed. On days 15-20, participants will be reviewed by telephone using a semi structured questionnaire. On day 21 participants will be examined in person and an oronasopharyngeal swabs obtained for PCR analysis.
