COVID-19 is spreading rapidly at an unprecedented scale across continents and has emerged as the single biggest risk the world has faced in modern times. It is spreading across the countries exponentially and was declared pandemic by WHO. By far 8,02,369 cases have been reported with 38,990 deaths and 1,72,319 people getting recovered. The most daunting aspect of this disease is difficulty in differentiation with the common cold as both bear roughly the same symptoms, along with it the symptoms in the infected person start showing after 5-6 days which gives the patient an illusion of wellness, when he is actually an active transmitter of the disease.
