UNSTRUCTURED Background: This is an outpatient case study that examines two patients in the United States with unique cases that involve oncology, hypertension, Type II Diabetes Mellitus, and Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2), also known as COVID-19. This case study involves two patients in the outpatient setting - treated via telemedicine, with laboratory-confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection in the West Texas region between March 29th, 2020, and May 14th, 2020. Case Report: The first patient is a 63-year-old female, non-smoker, who is diagnosed with Waldenstrom’s Macroglobulinemia (2012) and Primary Cutaneous Marginal Zone Lymphoma (2020) and the second patient is a 38-year-old male, non-smoker, who has the following comorbidities: Type II Diabetes Mellitus (DM), hypertension, and gout. Both patients were empirically started on budesonide 0.5mg nebulizer twice daily, clarithromycin (Biaxin) 500mg tab twice daily for ten days, Zinc 50mg tab twice daily, and aspirin 81mg tab daily. Both patients have fully recovered with no residual effects. Conclusion: The goal is to call attention to the success of proactive, early empirical treatment, combining a classic corticosteroid (budesonide) administered via a nebulizer and an oral macrolide antibiotic known as clarithromycin (Biaxin).

Chronic disease burdens continue to rise in highly dense urban environments where clustering of type II diabetes mellitus, acute myocardial infarction, stroke, or any combination of these three conditions is occurring. Many individuals suffering from these conditions will require longer-term care and access to clinics which specialize in managing their illness. With Singapore as a case study, we utilized census data in an agent-modeling approach at an individual level to estimate prevalence in 2020 and found high-risk clusters with >14,000 type II diabetes mellitus cases and 2000–2500 estimated stroke cases. For comorbidities, 10% of those with type II diabetes mellitus had a past acute myocardial infarction episode, while 6% had a past stroke. The western region of Singapore had the highest number of high-risk individuals at 173,000 with at least one chronic condition, followed by the east at 169,000 and the north with the least at 137,000. Such estimates can assist in healthcare resource planning, which requires these spatial distributions for evidence-based policymaking and to investigate why such heterogeneities exist. The methodologies presented can be utilized within any urban setting where census data exists.

Diabetes Mellitus is a major health problem in the whole world. In spite of tremendous advancements of the modern system of medicine as OAD (oral anti-diabetic drug) and insulin therapy, to date, an ideal drug that can control hyperglycemia is still a distant dream. It has been a challenge for Ayurveda to search for additional effective solutions resulting in the better management of the disease. There is a need for effective, safe and potent medicine which can control hyperglycemia related to type II diabetes and has no side effects.  In this case study, we used Ayurvedic medicine ‘Vallipanchmoolchurna’ mentioned in Sushruta Samhita in a single case study which was done on the use of  Vallipanchmool churna on type II Diabetes Mellitus. A significant reduction was seen in blood sugar level fasting and post-meal.
