Abstract
Covid-19 is now a 6.0 months old disease. After its first identification and early encounter, many speculations about its natural course and various pathogenesis mechanisms have been made. From ACE-II Rs mediated viral attachment to pneumocyte damage, and diffuse endotheliitis, still a lot is left to answer on pathogenesis, immunity and other important aspects of this disease. What we have now is some studies, observational lab and clinical data only that keeps us guessing what is going on with this novel disease.
