The novel Coronavirus disease-19, caused by Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus-2, is the most contagious disease of recent years and declared as pandemic by World Health Organization, which rapidly spreads from one person to another mainly by intimate and proximate contact. Although it belongs to same corona virus’s family those caused Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS) and Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS) in past decades, it has high transmission and infection rate but a low mortality rate as compared to these past diseases. National Institutes of Health has mentioned that SARS-CoV-2 can easily survive for three hours in droplets to a maximum of three days on different surfaces. Personal hygiene, frequent hand wash, breaking the chain of infection by social distancing and sanitization are the solutions of COVID-19. Temperature screening is less effective than promoting hand washing, respiratory hygiene and social distancing at an event. Of course, boosting immunity with the help of home-based remedies and traditional system of medicines along with yoga and meditation is the holistic way of getting rid of the COVID-19.
