Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. The virological clearance rate of throat swabs, sputum, or lower respiratory tract secretions at day 7 [ Time Frame: 7 days after randomization ]

Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. The virological clearance rate of throat swabs, sputum, or lower respiratory tract secretions at day 3 [ Time Frame: 3 days after randomization ]
  2. The virological clearance rate of throat swabs, sputum, or lower respiratory tract secretions at day 5 [ Time Frame: 5 days after randomization ]
  3. Number of participants with treatment-related adverse events as assessed by CTCAE v5.0 [ Time Frame: 14 days after randomization ]
  4. The critical illness rate of subjects at weeks 2 [ Time Frame: 14 days after randomization ]
    The diagnosis of critical illness case was based on the notice on printing and distributing the diagnosis and treatment plan of pneumonia with new coronavirus infection (trial version 4) made by National Health Commission of the People's Republic of China.

  5. The mortality rate of subjects at weeks 2 [ Time Frame: 14 days after randomization ]
