Abstract

 Novel extreme intense respiratory condition coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) lies behind the continuous episode of coronavirus malady 2019 (COVID-19). There is a developing comprehension of SARS-CoV-2 in virology, the study of disease transmission, and clinical administration systems. Be that as it may, no enemy of SARS-CoV-2 medication or antibody has been authoritatively affirmed because of the nonattendance of satisfactory proof. Researchers are dashing to build up a treatment for COVID-19. Late investigations have uncovered numerous alluring remedial choices, regardless of whether some of them stay to be additionally affirmed in thorough preclinical models and clinical preliminaries. In this minireview, we mean to sum up the refreshed potential methodologies against SARS-CoV-2. We stress that further endeavors are justified to build up the most secure and best methodology.

Keywords: COVID-19; SARS-CoV-2; Antiviral Drugs; Treatment; Vaccines
