Brief Summary   All adult patients 18 years and above  with acute hypoxemic respiratory failure diagnosed as Covid 19 positive will be included in the study and standard treatment will be given as per Ministry of health and family welfare new guidelines. Once patients are not able to maintain target oxygen saturations with oxygen face mask @ 6LPM they will be given oxygen devise either High flow nasal oxygen cannula or non rebreathing oxygen face mask base on randomisation. If patients are not able to maintain saturations even with the assigned devise they will be given Non invasive mechanical ventilatory support on invasive mechanical ventilation which depends on primary treating physician and they will be considered as treatment failure.
