Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

• Meeting 1 of the 2 categories of COVID-19 risk:

• Category A: Immunocompromised

• Category B: Non-Immunocompromised, but with ≥2 risk factors

• Onset of signs/symptoms attributable to COVID-19 ≤10 days prior to the day of randomization for non-immunocompromised participants (Category B).

• Confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection as determined by Reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) or acceptable test method performed by a health care provider in any specimen collected within 48 hours prior to randomization.

• Hospitalized for inpatient care for the treatment of clinical manifestations of severe COVID-19.

• Requirement for oxygen supplementation (via nasal cannula, mask, non-invasive ventilation [NIV] or high flow oxygen) to maintain SpO2 ≥94% at the time of Screening and Randomization.

Exclusion Criteria:

• Critical illness, defined by ≥1 of the following:

• Requirement for mechanical ventilation or extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) at randomization, or likely to require intermittent mandatory ventilation (IMV) or ECMO within 12 hours of randomization .

• Multi-organ dysfunction/failure.

• Hemodynamically unstable, eg. septic shock, cardiac failure or requiring vasopressors.

• Participant not expected to survive 24 hours from time of randomization.

• History of severe chronic liver disease

• Receiving dialysis of any kind or severe renal impairment

• Use of nirmatrelvir/ritonavir as an outpatient to treat the current COVID-19 related illness ≤7 days of randomization
