I'm currently on tiotropium, taking 1 capsule a day for inhalation, along with avessa 250 rotocaps, oxybro capsules, and glemont f capsules. I'm a bit worried and just wondering if any of these could be harmful to me or if they contain steroids. Could you give me some info about these medicines?

I'm really worried about my dad. He's 64 and has both asthma and diabetes, and I'm unsure if he should get Covishield or Covaxin. I'm so confused about whether any tests are necessary for asthma patients before getting vaccinated. I read that Bharat Biotech mentioned that people with allergies shouldn't take Covaxin, which adds to my worries. Also, I've heard about some people dying after getting the vaccine, and it's quite concerning. What could be the reason behind this? Can you help clarify these concerns for me?

Patient is advised pneumococcal ,infuenza vaccinations every year . Also covishield vaccine is advised to the patient.

I'm really worried about my dad. He has mild pneumonia symptoms based on a recent CT scan and is experiencing some breathing issues. He's tested positive for COVID-19, and his SpO2 levels are around 93-94. We tried to get a hospital bed for him, but none are available. What should we do now? He's currently isolating at home.
