Abstract:In Opinions on Promoting the Inheritance and Innovation of Traditional Chinese Medicine(TCM)issued in 2019,it was pointed out that the advantages of TCM in disease treatment should be highlighted,focusing on cancer,infectious diseases,diabetes,cardio cerebrovascular diseases,antibiotic resistance and other issues,and carrying out coordinated research of TCM and Western medicine to form and promote about 50 integrated diagnosis and treatment schemes by 2022.The newly revised China AIDS Diagnosis and Treatment Guidelines(2018 Edition)pointed out that adults and adolescents who have been diagnosed with HIV should be treated with antiretroviral therapy immediately.At present,it has achieved good results in inhibiting virus replication and improving immune system function,but there are also problems such as drug resistance,adverse reactions and compliance.With its unique theoretical system,TCM has formed its own characteristics and advantages in the prevention and treatment of AIDS after more than 30 years of research.In the new situation,the advantages of TCM in the treatment of AIDS should be made full use of and combined with western medicine to prevent and treat AIDS.
