    comparison of the time of relief / disappearance of three main symptoms of fever, cough and shortness of breath

    Measured: 9day

  2. Chest CT absorption

    with reference to the "pneumonia chest X-ray absorption Evaluation scale" developed by Renyi Yin et al, the final absorption judgment will be used to evaluate the chest CT absorption of patients with pneumonia, which is divided into four levels according to the degree of absorption: complete absorption, majority absorption, partial absorption and no absorption.

    Measured: 9day

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Evaluation standard of comprehensive curative effect

    With reference to the "Therapeutic effect Standard for diagnosis and Syndrome of Traditional Chinese Medicine" and "guiding principles for Clinical Research of New drugs of traditional Chinese Medicine", the final evaluation was based on clinical remission.

    Measured: 9day

  2. Virus antigen negative conversion rate

    the detection negative rate of nasopharyngeal swab, conjunctival sac secretion virus nucleic acid.

    Measured: 9day

  3. The number of severe and critical conversion cases

    the number of severe and critical cases occurred after the start of intervention.

    Measured: 9day

  4. Incidence of complications

    defined as complications during isolation and hospitalization due to pneumonia infected by novel coronavirus, including bacterial infection, aggravation of underlying diseases, etc

    Measured: 9day
