Abstract
The world was apparently running smooth and was naïve about what was about to follow the mundane, up
until December 2019 when a cluster of pneumonia cases first appeared in Wuhan, a city in Hubei province
of China. The causative organism was identified as Novel Coronavirus.
The Novel Coronavirus rapidly spread throughout China, causing an epidemic and later spread to different
parts of the world, involving every continent and country (except Antarctica). Identifying the pandemic,
WHO (World Health Organisation) in February 2020, designated the disease as COVID-19 (Coronavirus
disease 2019). The virus causing this disease is the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARSCoV-
2).
