Covid-19 Pandemic: Impact and Management

This monograph is based on authors knowledge gained while making themselves acquainted about Covid-19 and its protective measures. At the same time authors proposed very simple solutions to fight against Covid-19 like use of silk based maskes and water therapy. Thsu, this monograph aims to provide the awaraness to the common man about Covid-19 pandemic and a priori protective measures against Covid-19. It also covers the India specific developments on instrumentations, mostly by DRDO. The size limitation of the monograph limited authors to cover the developments by various other science and technology institutes across the country. We hope that this monograph will help common man to get acquainted with Covid-19 pandemic and also assist in taking precautionary measurements to prevent oneself.
