Rep. Mike Kelly, a Republican from Pennsylvania, said there is no one-size-fits-all way to treat the coronavirus. He said the key is to have faith in doctors and the options that they lay out for you.

It was their suggestion, but, ultimately, it was my decision. There is always some caveats with taking any drug, but I understood that and decided for me it was the right choice.”
