Since 2002, however, newly merged hCoV causes fever, dyspnea, and often organ failure, which bestow SARS (severe acute respiratory syndrome) to otherwise benign hCoV (5) . During the MERS-CoV and SARS-CoV outbreaks, most patients died of acute lung injury (ALI) or acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), a severe case of ALI (11) . Fortunately, the mortality of SARS-CoV2 infection, which is related to ALI or ARDS, is lower than those of the other two outbreaks (13) . As yet, however, no evidence is available that, if administered to patients on the principles of traditional Asian medicine, the medicinal herbs show effectiveness against ALI caused by SARS-CoV2 infection.
