The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has spurred an unprecedented paradigm shift to telemedicine across healthcare fields in order to limit exposure to the virus. At the West China Hospital of Sichuan University, telemedicine has been used to perform COVID-19-related tele-education to health professionals and the general population, as well as tele-diagnosis, online treatment and internet-based drug prescription and delivery. However, many older adults could not make appointments with doctors due to difficulty using the internet-based platform. Careful attention needs to be paid by future researchers and policymakers in order to mitigate barriers older adults face when using telemedicine.
2019 年冠状病毒病（COVID-19）大流行促使医疗保健领域发生了前所未有的向远程医疗的范式转变，以限制接触病毒。在四川大学华西医院，远程医疗已被用于对卫生专业人员和公众进行 COVID-19 相关的远程教育，以及远程诊断、在线治疗以及基于互联网的药物处方和配送。然而，许多老年人由于难以使用基于互联网的平台而无法预约医生。未来的研究人员和政策制定者需要密切关注，以减轻老年人在使用远程医疗时面临的障碍。
