Alok Bharadwaj

Coronavirus or Covid-19 is a new kind of viral respiratory tract disease which was declared as a lethal pandemic for the world. COVID-19 affects different people in different ways. The most common symptoms include fever, sore throat and dry cough. But some patients are asymptomatic also which somehow increases the risk for transmission. More than 210 countries are currently facing this disease and are fighting from COVID-19 but better approaches of diagnostics and medical facilities have helped some countries to recover at some extent. Some vaccines are under development for SARSCoV-2 infection and once it will be approved and available for human use, it will help a lot in controlling this pandemic.
