In the past few days, many places have been actively involved in the prevention and control of Chinese medicine in the epidemic. The combination of Chinese and Western medicine and the combined use of Chinese and Western medicine have achieved good results.

Since July 20th, more than 60 local confirmed cases of new coronary pneumonia in Jiangsu have been discharged from hospital. Starting from this round of the epidemic, the State Administration of Traditional Chinese Medicine has organized Chinese medicine experts to Nanjing to guide the prevention, control and treatment of the epidemic. Zhang Zhongde, deputy leader of the State Administration of Traditional Chinese Medicine's expert group on the prevention and control of the new crown pneumonia epidemic, said that the current epidemic in Jiangsu and the previous epidemics in Ruili, Yunnan and Guangzhou, Guangdong are all strains of Delta.

Since the beginning of this year, Zhang Zhongde has participated in the treatment and guidance of three domestic epidemics caused by Delta strains in Yunnan, Guangdong and Jiangsu. He introduced that after research and discussion by TCM experts, this round of epidemic is still within the scope of TCM "epidemic".

In Nanjing and Yangzhou, Chinese medicine has participated in the whole process of "prevention, treatment, and health" for prevention in isolation points, treatment in designated hospitals, and rehabilitation after discharge. The use rate of Chinese medicine in both treatment and rehabilitation is 100%. Medical staff use traditional Chinese medicine for all cases early and throughout the treatment, ranging from infants from 4 months old to elderly people in their 90s. At present, a 4-month-old baby, after being fed with traditional Chinese medicine decoction, his symptoms have improved significantly.

In the treatment of critically ill, Chinese and Western medicine are deeply integrated. Medical institutions in many places have formed two sets of traditional Chinese medicine and western medicine, which cooperate with each other in the process of admitting patients and formulating treatment plans to give full play to their respective advantages. In Guangdong, since May, there have been 156 patients with new coronary pneumonia treated with traditional Chinese medicine and integrated Chinese and Western medicine, accounting for 93.4% of the total number of patients, and the effect is good. Shanghai has assembled the city's traditional Chinese medicine forces to form an effective mechanism of joint rounds of Chinese and Western medicine experts who participated in all aspects and the whole process, which has achieved remarkable results in reducing the rate of severe illness and the number of days of hospitalization. Not long ago, a pregnant woman diagnosed with new coronary pneumonia in Ruili City, Yunnan Province successfully gave birth to triplets of boys in the quarantine area of the designated treatment hospital. The newborns' nucleic acid test results were all negative.

To give full play to the utility of Chinese medicine, while doing a good job in the treatment of patients, various places also promote the prevention and intervention of Chinese medicine. Hubei Zhijiang brews about 6,000 bags of decoctions every day, and distributes them free of charge to medical staff and quarantine personnel. The Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital of Zhangjiajie City, Hunan Province makes traditional Chinese medicine decoctions to protect the key controlled populations in the fully enclosed area of the city. So far, more than 260,000 bags of preventive decoctions have been sent to the front line of epidemic prevention and control, which has played a very good role in comprehensive epidemic prevention and treatment. Effect. All cities and counties in Henan have organized a team of TCM physicians in centralized isolation points, and stationed full-time TCM physicians in centralized isolation points with more than 100 people.

After experiencing “actual combat” against the epidemic, Chinese medicine has been deeply involved in epidemic prevention and control and patient treatment, and has accumulated rich experience. The medical model of integrated Chinese and Western medicine is also increasingly perfected in practice.
