This document details the COVID-19 journey of a patient in Dubai who tested positive on May 10. He was brought to the hospital on May 13 with symptoms of body pains, loss of taste and smell, and cough. He was discharged on May 26. Five of his coworkers also tested positive on May 12 but were not hospitalized due to lack of symptoms. The patient and coworkers took ascorbic acid, melatonin, calcium, magnesium, zinc, and vitamin D3, which effectively treated COVID-19 and resulted in improvement of their conditions and shortened recovery time.

16. SUMMARY
COVID-19 JOURNEY IN DUBAI
May 7 – the patient felt body pains and loss of taste
and smell, random cough; swab samples taken and
results came back positive on May 10; was brought
to hospital by DHA on May 13 and discharged on
May 26
After learning that N=1 is positive of
COVID-19, the rest of their team – 5
pax – got tested and also, results
came back positive on May 12
The other 5 pax were not
hospitalized as noted by DHA that
there’s no need due to lack of
symptoms during the time they were
brought to the quarantine facility
Ascorbic Acid and Melatonin,

Cal-Mag-Zinc with Vit D3,
is effective treatment of COVID-19
Early use of this protocol will prevent
and/or control the severity of COVID-19
All patients reported improvement in
their conditions from Day 1 of using the
protocol, shortened the time to recovery,
which was defined as being medically
stable enough to be discharged from
the hospital
All patients, N1 and 5 others, used

protocol
N1 : from May 7 to June 4
(discharged on May 26)
5 others : from May 13 to June 4
