Abstract
Successful homeopathic prescriptions are based on careful individualization of symptoms,
either for an individual patient or collectively in the case of epidemic outbreaks.
The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic was initially represented as a severe acute respiratory
illness, with eventual dramatic complications. However, over time it revealed to be
a complex systemic disease with manifestations derived from viral-induced inflammation
and hypercoagulability, thus liable to affect any body organ or system. As a result,
clinical presentation is variable, in addition to variations associated with several
individual and collective risk factors. Given the extreme variability of pathology
and clinical manifestations, a single, or a few, universal homeopathic preventive
Do not split medicine(s) do not seem feasible. Yet homeopathy may have a relevant
role to play, inasmuch as the vast majority of patients only exhibit the mild form
of disease and are indicated to self-care at home, without standard monitoring, follow-up,
or treatment. For future pandemics, homeopathy agencies should prepare by establishing
rapid-response teams and efficacious lines of communication.
