Abstract： The novel coronavirus pneumonia (COVID-19) belongs to the category of “epidemic” in traditional Chinese medicine， and traditional Chinese medicine has played an important role in the prevention and treatment of COVID-19. The authors believed that COVID-19 is an externally-contracted disease，and the correct use of the sweating method is very important，and at the same time，it should be combined with the method of promoting urination and defecation，in order to dispel pathogenic factors as completely as possible. Early COVID-19 patients can be treated according to the idea of triple-yang combination of diseases. The whole course of treatment should pay attention to the use of the method of dispelling dampness. After infection with COVID-19， it is better to be aware of reverse pericardium transmission. According to the concept of “treating disease before it arises” in traditional Chinese medicine，it is good to often protect and reinforce the healthy qi of the human body，so that the original qi of five zang-organs is smooth，and thus people are healthy.
