Abstract

Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has reached global epidemic status claiming more than 319K lives and affecting more than 4.81M people and counting worldwide. Considering the severity of the situation and low recovery rate many research institutions and pharmaceutical industries are rushing to learn more about this new virus and the morbid physiology of this disease with effective diagnostic methods, therapeutic agents and vaccines. Various approaches are highlighted for comparing the possible treatment methods available for COVID-19 some of which are BCG vaccination on COVID-19 and Non-pharmaceutical interventions, drug based clinical trials of Hydroxychloroquine-Azithromycin, chloroquine, lopinavir/ritonavir, ChAdOx1 nCoV-19, Remdesivir, Stem Cell therapy and mesenchymal stromal cell therapy, etc.

Highlights

  • Coronaviruses are a large group of viruses mainly divided into six genera

  • Various approaches are highlighted for comparing the possible treatment methods available for COVID-19 some of which are Bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) vaccination on COVID-19 and Non-pharmaceutical interventions, drug based clinical trials of Hydroxychloroquine-Azithromycin, chloroquine, lopinavir/ritonavir, ChAdOx1 nCoV-19, Remdesivir, Stem Cell therapy and mesenchymal stromal cell therapy, etc

  • This article describes the comparative results of possible treatment methods of BCG vaccines, lopinavir/ ritonavir, hydroxychloroquine-azithromycin, chloroquine, remdesivir, chadox[1] based vaccines, and mesenchymal stem cell therapy options

Summary

Introduction

Coronaviruses are a large group of viruses mainly divided into six genera. These viruses affect the body through symptoms ranging from common cold to severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) or Middle East respiratory syndrome (MERS)[1]. Various approaches are highlighted for comparing the possible treatment methods available for COVID-19 some of which are BCG vaccination on COVID-19 and Non-pharmaceutical interventions, drug based clinical trials of Hydroxychloroquine-Azithromycin, chloroquine, lopinavir/ritonavir, ChAdOx1 nCoV-19, Remdesivir, Stem Cell therapy and mesenchymal stromal cell therapy, etc.
