Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

1. Subjects must have recent exposure to SARS-CoV-2 (such as repeated or extensive
exposure to an infected individual(s) or cohabiting with a SARS-CoV-2 positive
individual).

2. Subjects must be 50 years or older if the exposure is due to cohabitation.

3. Subjects must be free of clinical signs or symptoms of a potential COVID-19 diagnosis
(Ordinal Scale of Clinical Improvement score of 0) with a SARS-CoV-2 infection symptom
score (fever, cough, shortness of breath, and fatigue) of 0 in each category.

4. Spirometry (forced expiratory volume in one second FEV1 and forced vital capacity
[FVC]) ≥70% of predicted value.

5. If female, the subject must be surgically sterile or ≥ 1 year postmenopausal. If of
child-bearing potential (including being < 1years postmenopausal) and, if
participating in sexual activity that may lead to pregnancy, the subject agrees to use
an effective dual method of birth control (acceptable methods include intrauterine
device, spermicide, barrier, male partner surgical sterilization, and hormonal
contraception) during the study and through 30 days after completion of the study.

6. If female, must not be pregnant, plan to become pregnant, or nurse a child during the
study and through 30 days after completion of the study. A pregnancy test must be
negative at the Screening Visit, prior to dosing on Day 1.

7. If male, must be surgically sterile or, if not surgically sterile and if participating
in sexual activities that may lead to pregnancy, be willing to practice two effective
methods of birth control (acceptable methods include barrier, spermicide, or female
partner surgical sterilization) during the study and through 30 days after completion
of the study.

8. Ability to understand and give informed consent.

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Previous infection with SARS-CoV-2.

2. Receipt of any vaccine for the prevention of COVID-19 (single or multiple doses).

3. A SARS-CoV-2 infection symptom score greater than 0 in any of the 4 catergories
(fever, cough, shortness of breath or fatigue) at the time of screening (Ordinal Scale
for Clinical Improvement score of 0).

4. Known history of chronic pulmonary disease (e.g., asthma [including atopic asthma,
exercise-induced asthma, or asthma triggered by respiratory infection], chronic
pulmonary disease, pulmonary fibrosis, COPD), pulmonary hypertension, or heart
failure.

5. Any condition which, in the opinion of the Principal Investigator, would prevent full
participation
