Brief Summary

Early identification and Severity prediction of Acute Respiratory infectious disease has become a top priority for clinicians at department of infectious and respiratory diseases after COVID-19 broke out. This is a multicenter, prospective, and randomized study, which aims to figure out the best way of early identification and severity prediction of acute respiratory infectious diseases. Patients with suspected acute respiratory infectious diseases will be enrolled into this study and received two different diagnostic pathways.
