Abstract
Coronavirus disease 2019 is associated with inflammation and thrombosis. Despite Aspirin has excellent anti-inflammatory and anti-thrombotic properties; it is seldom used in treating Covid-19 patients. This case report explains how potential Aspirin is for that purpose. On the 6th day of September 2020 this report presented the case of a 70 year old Bangladeshi man who contracted Covid-19 of late; and then how he managed safe recovery through the illness, since he was high risked with old age and cardiovascular co-morbidity. Although the situation was alarming, the patient enjoyed full cure off the disease with medication that included low dose Aspirin. Even in home settings, he did not experience any complication or untoward event to what he was so vulnerable. Low dose Aspirin played a great role to facilitate his journey smoothly through the ordeal.
