Coronavirus, presently coined as the 2019 novel coronavirus, appeared from Wuhan and give rise to a challenging outburst in many cities in China and extended internationally, including Thailand, United States, Japan and India. The disease is formally termed as Coronavirus Disease-2019. It is also coined as Severe Pneumonia with Novel Pathogens by the Taiwan CDC and is a remarkable transmissible disease of the fifth category. COVID-19 is inherently a zoonotic disease with low to moderate (estimated 2%-5%) mortality rate [1].
