Abstract

COVID-19, a rapidly spreading new strain of coronavirus, has affected more than 150 countries and received worldwide attention. The lack of efficacious drugs or vaccines against SARS-CoV-2 has further worsened the situation. Thus, there is an urgent need to boost up research for the development of effective therapeutics and affordable diagnostic against COVID-19. In this time of health crisis, it is the duty of scientific research community to provide alternative, effective and affordable strategies to vaccinate human bodies against viral infections-COVID-19 based on focused experimental approaches. Corona virus (CoV) is forward RNA virus on its surface, containing stick-shaped spikes. It is an undesirable broad genome of RNA, with an indefinite replication system. In mammals, birds, pigs and chickens, corona virus cause various infections. This triggers the pathogens of the upper respiratory tract, which can lead to death due to breathing illnesses. In this article the author briefly justify sudden occurrence of this highly pathogenic extreme lung disease and recently discovered in Middle East respiratory syndrome corona virus (MERS-CoV). This is review article are awareness about the CoVID-19 infection and its out break throughout the world. In this article brief history about life cycle, pathogenecity and transmittance of corona virus given.
