The control subjects used  a similarly-appearing but inactive nasal spray.  Respiratory infections were confirmed using PCR analyses.  The results showed that only 2.2% of the azelestine sprayers developed CoVid compared with 6.7% of controls.  Only 1.8% of azelestine sprayers developed rhinovirus infections compared with 6.3% of controls.Generic azelastine spray is a prescription medication.  Astepro Spray, the same medication, is available over-the-counter.  If you think you might benefit, give it a try.https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jamainternalmedicine/fullarticle/2838335#azelastine #astepro #allergy #CoVid #rhinovirus #commoncold
