- Viral nucleic acid test negative conversion rate [ Time Frame: 5 months ]Proportion of subjects who tested negative for nucleic acid from sputum or nasopharyngeal swabs for two consecutive times(sampling time at least 24 hours).
- Clinical cure rate [ Time Frame: 5 months ]Definition of clinical cure: The viral load of the respiratory specimen was negative for two consecutive times (the interval between the two tests was greater than or equal to one day), the lung image improved, and the body temperature returned to normal for more than 3 days, and the clinical manifestation improved.
