Severe acute respiratory syndrome due to coronavirus 2 (SARS CoV-2) is a novel infectious disease, which has quickly developed into a pandemic. The spectrum of COVID-19 symptoms is broad, ranging from a mild, self-limiting respiratory tract illness to severe progressive pneumonia, multi-organ failure and possible death. Despite much effort and multiple clinical trials, there are, to date, no specific therapeutic agents to treat or cure the coronavirus infection.
The present paper presents 5 cases of patients with moderate to severe COVID-19 infections, 2 of them hospitalized in the intensive care unit, who were successfully treated with homeopathy.
All 5 patients responded to homeopathic treatment in an unexpectedly short time span, improving both physically and mentally.
The present case series emphasizes the rapidity of response among moderate to severely ill patients to homeopathic treatment, when conventional medical options have been unable to relieve or shorten the disease. The observations described should encourage use of homeopathy in treating patients with COVID-19 during the acute phase of the disease.
由冠状病毒 2（SARS-CoV-2）引起的严重急性呼吸综合征是一种新型传染病，迅速发展成为大流行。COVID-19 的症状谱广泛，从轻症、自限性呼吸道疾病到严重进行性肺炎、多器官衰竭和可能死亡不等。尽管付出了巨大努力并进行了多次临床试验，但迄今为止，尚无针对冠状病毒感染的特定治疗药物。
本论文介绍了 5 例中至重度 COVID-19 感染患者，其中 2 例住院于重症监护病房，他们成功接受了顺势疗法治疗。
所有 5 例患者均在出乎意料的短时间内对顺势疗法治疗做出反应，在身体和精神上均有所改善。
本病例系列强调了中度至重度疾病患者对顺势疗法治疗的快速反应性，而常规医学方法无法缓解或缩短病程。所描述的观察结果应鼓励在 COVID-19 疾病的急性阶段使用顺势疗法治疗患者。
