Got Covid-19 but feel fine. Do I need antivirals?

Tested positive for Covid. Probably Omicron. Mild cold like symptoms for one day which seem to be going away. On the MS front, am on Ocrevus, having been diagnosed following one clinical relapse last year and optic neuritis, come recovery. Vaccinated x3. Mid 20s. Do I need antivirals if I feel fine? Will these help reduce risk of potential relapses or do they just help stop serious illness?

Hi! I’m in exactly the same boat and was wondering if you took the antivirals? I know it was a while ago😬

I found the antivirals to be really, really effective, but I felt bloody rotten. The worst thing is a vile taste in your mouth all the time you're taking them. If you feel fine, I personally wouldn't bother! Hope you're negative soon! 🤞
