Abstract

Scientists across the world are diligently seeking vaccines and cures for the novel SARS-CoV-2 (Covid-19) virus, which causes severe respiratory disease. Traditional medicine was found to have a significant therapeutic effect on recovering Covid-19 patients when combined with the infusion of corticosteroids, antivirals, and convalescent plasma. Here, we cover the contribution and effects of traditional medicine on Covid-19 patients. Early detection of Covid-19 and common safety precautions are among the infection prevention and control (IPC) techniques. The Covid-19 prevention methods include facemasks, social distancing, and vaccinations and are discussed. In addition, the survey of SARS-CoV-2 in wastewater, telemedicine, exposure detection via mobile apps, and electronic corona passport are also addressed. Although the vaccination pipeline looks promising in ending the Covid-19 infections, this review also provides awareness in the possibility of Covid-19 transmission within the community and the environmental impact of the pandemic.

新冠肺炎检测方法，以建立社区应对环境变化的能力

世界各地的科学家正在努力寻找新型SARS-CoV-2（新冠肺炎）病毒的疫苗和治疗方法，这种病毒会导致严重的呼吸道疾病。研究发现，传统药物与皮质类固醇、抗病毒药物和恢复期血浆相结合，对新冠肺炎康复患者具有显著的治疗效果。在这里，我们介绍传统医学对新冠肺炎患者的贡献和影响。感染预防和控制（IPC）技术包括新冠肺炎的早期检测和常见的安全预防措施。新冠肺炎预防方法包括口罩、保持社交距离和接种疫苗，并进行了讨论。此外，还涉及废水、远程医疗、移动应用程序暴露检测和电子电晕护照中严重急性呼吸系统综合征冠状病毒2型的调查。尽管疫苗接种渠道在结束新冠肺炎感染方面看起来很有希望，但这项审查也让人们意识到新冠肺炎在社区内传播的可能性以及大流行对环境的影响。
