Abstract
We urge for the attention to the other side of the problem in COVID-19 research and propose investigations on the cases such as why some persons were not infected in an atmosphere of high coronavirus infectivity as others did, why in a 19 hour journey of a train to Tibet the coronavirus was not able to spread and infect any people during its period of peak viral shedding and transmissibility and in such a narrow and closed space. Based on the facts of two examples, we suggest that the research from the other side of COVID-19 may not only help to uncover the different aspects of COVID-19 mystery, but also provide important information and valuable methods to stop or slow the tempestuous worldwide pandemic of COVID-19.
Highlights
Since the outbreak of COVID-19 at the end of 2019, numerous investigations have been carried out to reveal the cause of the disease, discover the ways of the virus to spread and infect human cells, and develop methods of treating the disease and protecting people from infection [1, 2]
