Randomization unit: Man
Random layers:
Material of randomization tool: Random number table
How to build a random sequence: Sequence
Allocation concealment: The subjects are randomly assigned to two groups (intervention and control) using a table of random numbers. The randomization sequence will be generated based on 4 random permutation blocks using a web-based software (from website: https://www.sealedenvelope.com). The randomization sequence will be provided to the project manager and will be hidden from the person participating in the study and the evaluator's colleague to enter the study until the intervention.
Blinding (investigator's opinion)
Double blinded
Blinding description
Blinding in this study was double-blind. So that the participants and the outcome assessor were unaware of what group the research units were in.
Participants were randomly assigned to the intervention and control groups and will not be aware of the type of intervention (Hyssop and Verbascum herbal tea in addition to common drugs for the treatment of Covide 19 or only conventional treatment) before the study start. Assessors, health care personnel (physicians, nurses, etc.) who are responsible for patient care will also not be aware of patient grouping.
