Treatment of Coronavirus Disease 2019: Timing Determines Prognosis

  • The global epidemic of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is still growing. The response to this emerging disease should be considered with the context of its clinical characteristics and pathophysiological mechanisms. Although available therapeutic options are still very limited, current experience has suggested that the choice of clinical strategies should be based upon the disease stage and immune functions of the patients. The present article reviews the clinical characteristics of COVID-19 and current evidence of various treatment approaches. Combined with first-line experience, we summarize the current clinical strategies for COVID-19 management based on disease progress and staging.
