At the press conference held by the State Council’s Joint Prevention and Control Mechanism on December 7, Guo Yanhong, Director of the Department of Medical Emergency Response under the National Health Commission, highly affirmed the therapeutic efficacy of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). She stated that TCM possesses unique advantages in the treatment of viral infections, and certain high-quality TCM formulations can serve as excellent therapeutic options.
In response to diverse populations and the evolving clinical symptoms and manifestations of COVID-19, the “Bianque Health Guardian Pack” features traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) formulations for prevention and treatment. Developed by TCM experts in accordance with the Diagnosis and Treatment Protocol for Novel Coronavirus Pneumonia (Trial Version 9), these formulations take into account current viral prevalence and the trend toward milder symptoms. The pack scientifically provides a 3-day preventive regimen and a 5-day therapeutic regimen.
The preventive formula adopts a classic standard prescription to boost qi, consolidate the exterior, avoid noxious pathogens, and eliminate epidemic factors, aiming to enhance population immunity. The therapeutic formula is based on a modified classic prescription as its foundation, achieving the efficacy of clearing the lungs and detoxifying. Additionally, the therapeutic formula is supplemented with specific customized prescriptions tailored to individual constitutions and symptoms.Home-based patients can prepare customized combinations at home according to prescriptions and dosages under online physician guidance, achieving a “one patient, one formula” approach.Meanwhile, to facilitate home administration for patients, both the preventive and therapeutic formulations are provided as traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) granules, which can be easily reconstituted with hot water.
Diagnostic and Treatment Protocol for COVID-19 (Trial Version 9): Confirmation still relies on nucleic acid testing for SARS-CoV-2, with antigen testing generally not used as a standalone diagnostic basis. However, as the infection rate increases, antigen testing becomes more advantageous for disease diagnosis. This is because, given the transmission speed and pathogenicity of the Omicron variant, there are numerous asymptomatic or mildly symptomatic individuals in the population, for whom positive nucleic acid test results offer limited value in diagnosis and treatment.
Experts state that antigen testing is convenient and suitable for home self-testing, meeting the current needs of disease prevention and control focused on diagnosis and treatment. A positive self-test result allows for timely isolation or home recovery, thereby reducing the strain on medical resources.
Therefore, for home-based prevention and control of COVID-19, it is essential to keep an appropriate supply of antigen test kits at home.“Bianque Health Protection Kit” is specially equipped with 10 COVID-19 antigen test kits to meet users’ needs for at-home self-testing., promptly understand one’s own infection and recovery status, thereby enabling scientifically precise prevention and treatment.
At present, everyone must assume primary responsibility for their own health and implement comprehensive personal protective measures.
