运用艾草Artemisiae Argyi Folium、苍术Atractylodis Rhizoma和白芷Angelicae Dahuricae Radix等性味香燥的中药材熏蒸进行防疫是我国古代医家在千百年来同疫病斗争过程中独特的创造。现有研究肯定了中药材熏蒸在临床实践中的应用，且有明确药理研究证明其相关有效成分。对艾草、苍术及避疫方防疫的相关历史沿革及现代研究进展进行综述，针对目前新型冠状病毒肺炎（coronavirus disease 2019，COVID-19）聚集性发病的主要特点及其空气飞沫传播，甚至可能出现的气溶胶传播的背景下，推荐合理运用中医药熏蒸，并在医院、社区和家庭等场合使用，有望发挥抗击疫情的重要作用。

The fumigation of Chinese herbal medicines, such as Artemisiae Argyi Folium, Atractylodis Rhizoma, and Angelicae Dahuricae Radix, is one of the creations of ancient Chinese medical practitioners during the struggle against the disease for thousands of years. Researches have showed the application of fumigation of Chinese medicinal materials in clinical practice, and there are clear pharmacological studies to prove its related effective ingredients. Therefore, we review the historical evolution and modern application progress of Chinese materia medica fumigation. In the light of the infectious features of COVID-19 including air droplet transmission and even possible aerosol transmission, the corresponding Chinese herbal medicine fumigation should be recommended and used in hospitals, communities, and families, which is expected to play an important role in fighting disease infections.
