Popis: | COVID -19 is a highly contagious viral disease that affects human populations very differently ranging from mild-to-moderate flu-like symptoms to serious complications involving mainly the respiratory system. The causative pathogen is a new virus Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2. The viral disease gripped millions of lives in a short span, due to which World Health Organization announced it as pandemic on March 11, 2020. Various measures were adopted at local and global levels to stop immediate escalation of the viral infection. A complete lockdown was imposed, movement was restricted, industries were shut down, vehicles were prohibited to ply; only the production and supply of essential services were permitted. On one hand, the fatal disease posed a serious threat to life and quarantine caused loneliness but on the other hand, such unprecedented crisis had a positive impact on overall healing of nature. The economy and health infrastructure of various countries collapsed in fighting the pandemic. To revive, switching over to green economy may be the most viable option and it will also be a climate-conscious approach. The current review article gives an insight about COVID-19 pandemic and fight against it from India’s perspective. |
