What about zinc lozenges dissolved in the mouth, followed by a can or two of tonic water infused with green tea or matcha and a few drops of bay leaf essential oil. Essential oils have been evaluated for their inhibitory activity against SARS-CoV and HSV-1 replication in vitro by visually scoring of the virus-induced cytopathogenic effect post-infection. Laurus nobilis oil exerted an interesting activity against SARS-CoV with an IC(50) value of 120 microg/ml and a selectivity index (SI) of 4.16. This oil was characterized by the presence of beta-ocimene, 1,8-cineole, alpha-pinene, and beta-pinene as the main constituents. https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/cbdv.200890045 https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/cbdv.200890...
