After we use Chinese medicine, this kind of qi will make it up, and the heartbeat will come down.

The standard we entered was the same as the standard for discharge (with western medicine), but it was not said that because I used Chinese medicine to lower the standard. The first symptom should be alleviated, the second nucleic acid is double negative, and the third is that our CT has improved significantly, so we are the same as the new version of the discharge standard.
