Coronavirus disease 2019(COVID-19)是由一种新型冠状病毒Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2(SARS-CoV-2) 所引起的传染性疾病,目前已成为世界各国迫切需要解决的医疗问题。截至目前为止(2021/11/20),新冠肺炎已扩散至222 个国家并感染高达2 亿五千万人,并造成了五百万人死亡。因此世界许多组织都将研究COVID-19 的治疗方法视为重点,希望能进一步降低SARS-CoV-2 所造成的伤害,但许多研究由於收案规模较小,因此许多实验结果仍存在疑虑。尽管已有疫苗问世,COVID-19 仍在许多国家肆虐,现行的治疗仍是以支持性和症状治疗为主。
COVID-19 最早在武汉发生,所以中国当地累积了十分多的治疗经验。许多文献指出中医药的配合治疗能够更好的改善COVID-19 病人的症状,而台湾又因为清冠一号的发行而让更多民众知道中医能提供协助治疗COVID-19,许多病人因而寻求中医帮助。
本病例为一名54 岁的女性患者因感染COVID-19 而寻求中西医治疗。在服用中药12 天後症状和X 光都获得了明显改善。可提供COVID-19 患者一个有效的中西医合疗方式。

【Summary】
|
Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) is an infectious disease caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus, and has become an urgent medical problem needed to be resolved all over the world. The coronavirus COVID-19 has spread to 222 ries and resulted in more than 250 million cases infected and nearly 5 million deaths worldwide to date (11/20/2021). Therefore, fighting the COVID-19 pandemic is a top priority in medical research and pharmaceutical development. Hundreds of organizations are working on innovations to reduce the impact of SARS-CoV-2, but with many studies carried out independently in small numbers of people, there is still a risk that the trials will lack statistical rigour. Although the vaccine has come out, the COVID-19 is still raging in many ries. Current treatment is still focused on supportive care and symptomatic treatment.
COVID-19 first occurred in Wuhan, so China has accumulated a lot of local treatment experience. Many references indicated that the combined treatment of Chinese medicine and western medicine can significant improve the symptoms of COVID-19 patients. Furthermore, the release of Qing Guan Yi Hao in Taiwan has also let more people know that Chinese medicine can provide assistance in the treatment of COVID-19. Not surprisingly, many patients have turned to traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) to seek for help.
We report a case of a 54-year-old female patient with COVID-19 seeking TCM advice. The symptoms, X-Ray were improved after taking Chinese herbal formulae within 12 days. This approach seems to offer a effective alternative combined treatment for COVID-19 patients.
