are you biohacking for this? (i remember this was a longstanding interest of yours)
i got covid last year, it was not brutal thanks to vaccine, but still felt the punch and it lingered a bit. it wasn't "the flu", i kick the flu in 2-3 days, this was longer and more bothersome
i supplemented glutamine and whey protein, omega3/vitd (always), ate a lot of ginger/garlic/onion/citrus/peppers, limited sugar (but took in some medicines), slept extra
kicked it in like... a week, it was? but for a week it was a vacation in bed. then another week before resumed (some) exercise. another third week to be fully recovered
how long is it taking you?
anyway some links

ginger "possible" antiinflammatory

etc etc
oh, if exercise defeats you, lower intensity to just stretching to keep the lymphatic system taking out the garbage
i expect from you a vigorous discussion of the subject hahaha. but seriously feel free to question/criticize/whatever
oh um i also ate a bunch of blueberries, rich in salicylates (aspirin, antiinflammatory)
saltwater gargles... help the throat stand victorious lol
