It appears that COVID 19 kills the cilia cells in the lungs.

When the virus enters your body it binds to two cells in the lungs - goblet cells that produce mucus and cilia cells which have hairs on them and normally prevent your lungs filling up with debris and fluid such as virus and bacteria and particles of dust and pollen.
The virus attacks these cells and starts to kill them - so your lungs begin to fill with fluid making it hard for you to breathe. This phase of the disease is thought to last about a week.
It might be a good to learn about postural drainage and the techniques to clear the lungs of mucus. Doing it before pneumonia sets in might stop the real serious damage that the virus does to the lung tissue.
